Alison B is inspired by COLOR and the healing power of artmaking. Her materials change with the seasons, but her artwork always involves rich, luxurious color. In the colder months, Alison felts cashmere and wool sweaters and transforms them into accessories for humans, cats, and homes. In the warmer months, she uses the ice tie dye technique to create colorful clothing and home goods. In addition to making art, Alison B teaches and tells stories, sometimes accompanied by her handmade puppets. She also works as an Arts Education consultant. Weekly, you can find her at Sharpsburg Community Library offering arts and literacy programming for children and adults.
