Cognissart

Textile Artist Alison Wake creates evocative landscape art through the medium of stitch.

Inspired by the Peak District scenery surrounding her home, she paints with thread and yarn.

Working by hand she creates highly textured work depicting the natural and man-made landscape; using fabric and thread to sculpt an almost three dimensional image.

Locally sourced hand dyed wools capture the colours of the peak district perfectly.

All her landscape works depict real places, often recognisable as local landmarks but viewed from a new perspective.
