Linda Thiemann is an award-winning contemporary fiber artist, who combines her passion for fiber with her love of nature. Her innovative, felted work is defined by its three-dimensional, flowing elements that burst with color. Her subject matter lends itself to the very organic feel of her tactile creations.
Felting are trademarks of her art, often blending many colors of the loose dyed fiber known as roving, to achieve her popular painterly effects. She also has developed a stacked fabric technique to create solid fabric sculptures, and utilizes construction methods in making the 3-D aspects she employs in much of her work. Beading, yarn-wrapped edge roll, stitching, and other fiber elements are also important aspects in her fresh and unique compositions.
