Elaine P. Nixon
The Handweavers' Guild of Boulder has an Annual Showcase with their famous Sale. The juror selected 60 out of 120 entries (3/3 of Elaine's were selected) and awarded ONE prize. This year's was for Elaine's "Tiger Lily". He liked the colors, color flow and third dimensional effect of the wrapped stamen added to the traditional tapestry techniques.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT
“In the midst of the clatter of life, I need the beauty of nature and I find peace in weaving wall tapestries. Art, to me, is an expression of communication between artist and viewer on the feeling level. Colors and textures excite me as I try to convey my impressions of nature. After walking and photographing outdoors, I sketch and design to interpret nature’s elements. Using combinations of yarns or mediums, I create flowers, sunsets, mountains into paintings and handwoven tapestries for beauty, joy, and contemplation indoors.”
