Description

Sarah Bellows Handwoven Mountain Tapestry
This skillfully crafted wool tapestry by Sarah Bellows features a vibrant depiction of a mountain landscape in a palette of warm tones. Utilizing tweeded wool, a medium that blends different shades and colors of wool fibers, the tapestry achieves a rich, variegated texture that adds depth and complexity to the visual experience. The longstitch technique employed here involves long straight stitches that fully cover the tapestry fabric, ideal for creating dramatic and detailed scenes or geometric patterns. This method enhances the robust infusion of color and dynamic contrast in the depiction of the natural landscape. Bellows' mastery in manipulating fiber and color through this technique makes the tapestry not only a visually striking image that emulates the layering and vastness of landscapes but also a testament to the artist’s skillful craftsmanship.
