artists 101: lucky jackson



the fabulously fun embroidery work of lucky jackson

...........



brilliant.
bright.
& beautiful.

indeed, mixed media artist lucky jackson's  work is all-things wonderful. her most recent adventure: 365 lucky days - one original piece of art every day, is the latest brainchild in this inspiring artist's illustrious portfolio.

sagely weaving embroidery, vintage fabrics, paints & media of all delicious kinds, fellow ontarioan lucky is lighting up the stitchy world with her delicate, touching, humourous artistry.  (check out this week's 365 theme *arrested development* - hurry! and her pdf patterns for sale now, too.)


a couple of years back i had the pleasure of meeting & interviewing lucky. what a nicey! & seeing her art up close & personal.. well it's just gosh-darn mesmerizing.

{so hop on over to feeling stitchy for a chance to win some lucky jackson goodies for yourself!}
