Project: Here and Now: Artist Research: Lesley Richmond

Lesley Richmond was born in cornwall in the south of england, and she recieved her art teachers training in London, England and her MEd in America.

''Lesley Photographs trees, focusing on the intricacy of their branching structures and then prints these images on cloth, using a medium that creates a dimensional surface. She then eliminates selected background areas, leaving the structural images of trees as the dominant feature. The images are then painted with metal patinas and pigments.''

Lesley Richmond's work relates to my projects because of her use of textiles, which was the main outcome of my project as I produced a cushion cover.
