Handpainted Silk Scarf depicting the Holyoke Range in shades of blue.  Size:  14" x 60"

Sally Dillon is a professional fiber artist specializing in quilted silk wall hangings.  Her designs are based on the study of nature, particularly geology and geography.  Cross-sectional maps, satellite photographs and a lifetime of close observation inspire many of her pieces.

Sally holds degrees in art from Mount Holyoke College and the University of New Mexico. 

To create her works, Sally stretches the highest quality white silk over frames, then draws a resist line with wax before applying French dyes with soft watercolor brushes. The silk is then dried, steamed, washed and dry-cleaned before assembly into unique wall hangings.
