custom pieces + sustainable art
in my work, i strive to be as sustainable as possible, including packaging and materials. for custom pieces, the majority of thread is purchased new to ensure consistency in colour and quantity needed to be able to create a lasting piece, however i strive to use a high count of second-hand items including fabrics, frames, tools, storage and packaging materials where possible.
the creative supply shelf
the studio floor creative collects gently used art and craft supplies to give them another life, save them from landfills or cluttering up basements, and to create accessible options for artists of all kinds
