These two are strutting off into the deep blue night with all the confidence of that glowing full moon.

Wet felted merino wool in varying shades of blue with kozo paper and silk. This duo has been painstakingly needle felted to look like they are coming right out of a storybook. Metallic silver foil and ink add the final touches to this magical piece.

All of Megan's work begins with the ancient skill, wet felting. This process uses loose wool roving, water and friction from the artist's hands to create an almost alchemical process that transforms the raw materials into a cohesive piece of fabric. Other materials are often combined to achieve a piece rich in color, texture and storytelling. Megan goes back into each piece multiple times to add detail through needle felting and a combination of other mediums such as embroidery, water soluble pastel, ink and metallic leaf. This modern, fine art approach to an ancient fiber craft results in unique, heirloom quality pieces inspired by myth, folklore, nature and archetypal imagery.

There is a story in American Indian folklore, The Rabbit and Eye Walker, in which Rabbit gets the name Fear Caller. Living in fear, worrying about the what-if’s, creating its reality from the fear it is so hoping to avoid. The story reminds us to live in the present, rooted in what is. Here we see Rabbit beginning to peek out at its surroundings, confronting the fears. The moon represents our ability to stay centered and see more clearly. Letting go of the fears and what ifs.

Needlepoint is a type of counted thread embroidery in which stitches cover the entire canvas. It is often worked on stiff canvas, which provides a stable base for the stitching.

The craft has been practiced for centuries, with examples found in ancient Egypt and other early civilizations.

During the medieval period, needlepoint was used to create elaborate tapestries and other decorative items for churches and wealthy households. In more recent times, needlepoint has become a popular hobby, with many people creating their own designs or following patterns.
