A woman who defines art by living . Kristie is a mother, wife, clothing designer and seamstress, painter and an artist of life. She has taught herself how to design and sew and continues to learn how to transform her ideas onto fabric. Living in the open landscape of the prairies, she has drawn on the beauties of nature for inspiration. In the last seven years, Kristie has created ways to sell her textile work alongside various talented people. She has now embraced the world of creating and sharing amongst festivals and the web on her own; thus the birth of Velvet Plume. artist gallery home
