Lincolnville: Revisited

My name is Maggie and I am a textile portrait artist!

I began working with fabric as an art form in 2008. About 9 years ago, I started searching for vintage photos to use for my pieces. Influenced by the nostalgia of old film, I capture candid moments from the 1930’s to the 1950’s in my textile work, particularly choosing images that appear photo-journalistic. Regarding my vintage inspired pieces, it all started with a subdued palette like old film… greys, dusty blues, ashen greens, and a variety of browns.
