Local artist Kaylin Francis brings her fiber-crafted portraits of eight different plants to the Miller Library February 4-27. With many years of experience in cross-stitch, quilting, and needlepoint as well as formal training in felting, dyeing, weaving, and screen-printing, she has been exhibiting her work at group and solo shows in Washington and Oregon since 2009.
Her 'Skeleton Flower
(Diphylleia grayi)' is pictured here. This unusual flower turns translucent when wet. The plant is found in Japan, China, and the Appalachian Mountains.
Kaylin welcomes
Leaflet readers for an opening reception at the library from 5 to 7 pm on Thursday, February 7.
