thelmasmith

My name is thelmasmith. I am a working artist and an independent curator. I live in the Sonoran Desert. My artistic medium is predominantly textiles. The genre that most fits what I do might be Other. I use dye to paint with. I hand dye cloth. I hand dye threads. I use anything and everything that may come to hand.

If you haven’t run across the name thelmasmith before, here’s a bit about me: I am outspoken and opinionated, eccentric and idiosyncratic. My body is sixty plus, my mind comes and goes. Some days my mind is six; other days it’s sixteen or six hundred. Some days interesting things fall out of my mouth and out of my fingers, seeming through no volition of my own. Some days a tart tongue but never with malice. Other days long meditative rambles. Once in a while a blurry perception of the society we live in. So there you have it, a thumbnail sketch of thelmasmith; partly truth and partly fiction, and always unredemptively curious.

That was a brief introduction about myself. If you are still curious, there are few more lines you can read about me on my website, where you can also browse images of my creations in the galleries.
