Laura G. Berman Felted Wool Scarves & Vessels

Welcome. My creative passion is to play with color, texture, and design in textiles. I've always sewn clothing and, for several years now, I've focused on felt as a way to create my own textiles. Use of high quality materials, attention to details, coupled with energetic whimsy and a strong statement are important qualities to the work I strive to produce. 

All of the following work was produced using only wet felting techniques with merino wool. The scarves are nuno-felted on silk with my own design techniques. Each vessel is also one-of-a-kind using self-taught methods to create 3-D collaged extensions on whimsical "creatures" with lids.

As a textile artist I'm always asking myself,"What if..." as a way to keep my work fresh, interesting, and experimental.
