Emily Keith

As a child  I watched my grandmother cut and piece quilts. I was fascinated by the way light and texture could change a swatch of velvet from rich purple to inky black or a deep bottle green. I loved the buttery softness of the fabric or the earthy smell of thick herringbone tweed. In summer I loved watching sun and shadow  dance over my Vermont wooded  hillsides. In winter, those hillsides were covered in pale hues of blue, green, smokey grey or creamy pink.  That was generations ago, but I have not lost my appreciation for color, for light, or for the world around me wherever I call home.

​
As a much younger woman I worked in charcoal, pencil, and oils but the result felt flat and lifeless no matter how many acknowledgements I received from others. I was in my fifties before I returned to the vibrancy of fiber. It was like coming home. I believe it is only with fiber that I can be truly creative.

My work is purposely asymmetrical in tribute to the ever changing tapestry that is Wyoming. I use varied textures, scripts, loop heights and widths to better mimic the natural ebb and flow of landscape and life. Nature's Tapestry pieces are highly textured to enhance the natural beauty of fiber, many of which  are hand dyed fabrics, fleeces and hand spun yarns.


My natural fiber originals celebrate the Big Horn Basin's varied landscape and its inhabitants. My textured and stylized work is created with traditional rug hooks on linen finished with horsehair and linen backing to insure wearability. My work is an effort to pay homage to the dignity and beauty of Wyoming.
