ABOUT BACKROADS 766
Backroads is the studio of Lynda Williamson, a Calgary-based textile artist.
For many years Lynda has travelled the backroads of Alberta and marvelled at the spectacular vistas. She finds inspiration from the natural beauty all around her: prairie storms, canola in bloom, and fields of wild flowers.
Her pieces are created using a process of corn dextrin resist combined with an application of thickened dyes which gives a greater depth to the textile creations. To further engage the viewer, layers of silk, cotton or linen, are overlayed and separated when hung.
