00:00:00,059 --> 00:00:02,660
(soft music)

2
00:00:02,660 --> 00:00:04,259
- Why do we collect textiles

3
00:00:04,259 --> 00:00:06,200
and what can they teach us as artists?

4
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:07,490
My name is Missy Dunaway

5
00:00:07,490 --> 00:00:09,929
and I paint textiles in
order to learn about them,

6
00:00:09,929 --> 00:00:12,583
preserve and pay homage
to my favorite fibers.

7
00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:17,960
Along the way we'll reflect
on personal significance

8
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,750
that we attribute to these beloved objects

9
00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:22,070
that straddle the line
between art and craft.

10
00:00:22,070 --> 00:00:24,210
We'll recreate three different textiles

11
00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:26,120
using different painting techniques

12
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,670
all using acrylic ink on paper.

13
00:00:28,670 --> 00:00:30,829
I've selected a scarf, quilt and rug

14
00:00:30,829 --> 00:00:32,740
that are personally significant to me

15
00:00:32,740 --> 00:00:34,429
and I encourage you to
look around the home

16
00:00:34,429 --> 00:00:36,929
and find objects that are special to you.

17
00:00:36,929 --> 00:00:39,347
