3. La Maison de Mae - Mae Buday

On the shore of Big Shell Lake in my studio, I work with fabric, thread and paint.  Fabrics have come from as far away as New Zealand and Taiwan.  In the cloth pieces, I use photos more often than ready-made patterns.    
In the jewelry, pebbles and seashells find their way into many of my pieces, along with semi-precious stones, wired with silver and copper.  Pebbles are found along Lake Superior and Haidi Gwaii.  

My inspiration is augmented by the loons, geese and otters, just to name a few, and anyone else who stops by.

Guest Artists:  
-- In search of Self by Corla McGillivray – Original art and related print products.
​
Corla’s art developed from the personal need for self-expression and inner meditative healing.  She has used a process of creating beautiful expressive backgrounds and working into them with ink to unveil a form of personal communication and imagery in her own art making.  Bold and colourful , they transform a space through intricate suggestion of form and can be hung any direction that the owner desires.  
Corla has also developed a similar process called Reverse Colouring Book © which puts the PLAY back into making art in a joyful and meditative way.  With the background already created, Corla invites you to pick up a pen and let your sub-conscious self come forth to communicate through your own language of the soul.
