Through September 3, 2013, the Encinitas Library is proud to
exhibit Lynn Ely’s, Natures Arts Recreated, fiber Art Sculptures. Intricate sculptures using pine needles and
Irish waxed linen and natural stone.
Each piece becomes artistically enhanced by it setting in a surround of
sculpted coils of pine needles which can be opened stitched or covered in a
tight wrap of waxed linen.
Lynn Ely was born in Stockholm Sweden, and came with her
family to southern California where she attended schools in Santa Monica and
the San Fernando Valley. Her B.A. degree from Calif. State Univ. at Northridge
includes a specialization in art. Her continuing studies in art include:
design, ceramics, leaded stained glass, and silver wire wrap jewelry, several
different types of loom weaving, pine needle coiling, drawing, painting,
collage, printmaking & composition.
“It is very exciting
for me to share my work in shows and galleries”, she says. Lynn has won
