Ruth Issett is a textile artist. She’s an author, teacher and she’s the queen of color. She’s a huge inspiration in my world. I met her once at a textile show, I was quite star struck. . These 3 books by Ruth, ‘Glorious Papers’, ‘Colour on Cloth’ & ‘Colour on Fabric and Paper’ are full of fabulously juicy, rich, colourful designs, patterns in texture from printing and stitching. Every page sends my mind spinning in all directions and wanting to play with all the things. All of them. . These books came to mind for day 4 of the #21daysinmyartworld challenge a few days ago when the prompt was for Art Books, but equally it fit’s the prompts I’ve missed since then - day 7 Colour Palette & day 8 Inspiration 😉 . #weekendcatchup #3daysatonce #colourinspiration #allthecolors #ruthissett #ithinkshesmyspiritanimal https://www.instagram.com/p/BsizsflDJaK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gg1qkoy04om3
