By hand or by machine, Lana adds that homespun touch to all your folk art and country wool projects… Marianne Byrne-Goarin is a "bit and pieces & quilter”, a lover of penny rugs and all things homespun. Her designs mix simple folk art style appliqué with hand embroidery. Soft and sweet like a taste of honey, warm and colorful with a touch of originality, Marianne Byrne-Goarin invites us to take a stroll in her artistic garden.

Mother Earth is an ageless protector and guardian of our planet. On her belly sits a polar bear representing the animals on land and a fish for the creatures of the sea. The globe on her torso is a constant window to the status of the earth’s resources. A recycle symbol “sporran,” is Mother Earth’s coat of arms and avid mission.
My coworker, Dustin Taylor, and I were asked to make a company poster this year. We gathered signatures from every employee in the agency to create a soldier saluting the nine veterans that work here.
This old school near Seattle's Garfield High School had a whole string of these mini-murals wrapped around its base. This is one of my personal favorites with its swooping balance of angles and curves!
Instead of my regular Strathmore hardbound sketchbook, I’ve been working in a different sketchbook for my Coronavirus Self-Portrait series. My mother-in-law gave me this beautiful sketchbook in 1983. I was going to use it only for self-portraits. I did seven self-portraits from 1983 to 1987 and then never drew in it again. It is nice to open it and fill its pages. It has an interesting story and since it was based on something French, I suppose it makes more sense to draw in it here in Paris than in Brooklyn:
THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART (New York)
ART DECO BOOKBINDING
French, 20th Century
This Art Deco bookbinding was adapted from a book in the Museum’s collection. The original was designed by Pierre Legrain (1889-1929) for Paul Valéry’s “L’ame et la danse,” published in Paris by Javal et Boudeaux in February 1926. Legrain designed unique handmade inlaid and tooled bookbindings in Paris durning the early part of the twentieth century. He was also known for his innovative decorative art designs. The original book was bound in brown Levant leather and inlaid with black and neutral Moroccan leather. The brown, gold, and platinum lines were hand tooled.
Our adaption is facsimile size. It is bound in simulated leather and has been stamped five times, once for each color. The book has 128 blank pages and is made of cream white, vellum-finished, acid-free paper. The book is suitable for writing or sketching.
