We’re pausing our virtual tour this week to showcase some of the artists whose work will be featured in our December trunk show. On Monday, we showed you Dianne Ayres’ textile art, today we’re talking about Rosalind Nzinga Nichol’s works.

Rosalind Nzinga Nichol describes her work:

I am a mixed media artist, papermaker and teacher. I began work as an illustrator before developing an interest in mixed media painting and papier-mache sculptures while working a muralist for about twenty years. Since 2000 I have also become a papermaker. Currently my work is focused on combining painting with papermaking as a single medium. I love introducing new students to the ancient art of papermaking. There is a special spiritual quality about this artform that transcends skill sets and allows anyone the opportunity to explore their inner creativity. I make my art and one-of-a-kind stationery products using vintage textiles as inclusions and teach papermaking from my studio in Orange and throughout Northern New Jersey.

Textile artist Dianne Ayres is just one of the artists whose works will be featured in our upcoming trunk show.

The workshop of Dianne Ayres began in 1988 to create textiles in the Arts & Crafts style for the home, including draperies, window curtains, bedspreads, pillows & table runners. Dianne’s workshop uses traditional techniques to make reproductions of period designs and their own Arts & Crafts inspired designs.

She also executes designs for other artists and architects as custom textiles. Dianne and her husband, Timothy Hansen, also collect the linens and the literature of the period, lecture, research and write on textiles and interiors.
