This is the introduction to her website, in Aniko’s own words:
January 5, 2012 Program - Lenore Crawford
Lecture Title: Award Winning Techniques for Fusing Fabrics
Lenore Crawford's fabric art combine her love of France, their architecture, and flower gardens along with her passion for color and realism. Their texture and warmth achieved from the fabric itself along with fabric painting give the art an impressionistic feeling that only this medium can produce. She has won several prizes for her art and continues to develop and grow her medium and style in new and beautiful ways.
