Alpaca Artwork

My alpaca felted artwork is uniquely created by using roving spun from fleeces of our own beautiful herd of suri alpacas! My art is inspired by nature, animals and scenic landscapes. I majored in fine arts and have been drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpting etc., throughout my life. Once we bought alpacas, I discovered how I can combine my love for art and alpacas within the fiber arts world.
I enjoy working with their exquisite fleece to create something truly special...it's the best of both worlds!
I make my own art batts with our suri alpaca roving & locks blending in some huacaya alpaca, merino and rare breed SE2SE wools, mohair, tussah and mulberry silks, and a bit of sparkle from angelina & firestar. I blend natural and dyed fibers on my drum-carder to create colors for my artwork. I use both wet-felting and needle-felting techniques to “paint” my pictures. I add interesting textures using suri alpaca and wool locks. I may also lucet weave alpaca yarn braids, alpaca rug-core yarn and sometimes even sew on small crystal beads!
Please visit Galeria Saro in Stillwater, MN to see my available art pieces. You may also contact me to see if I have any of my recent artwork at home. Thank you!!
