On March 9th & 10th, 2024, Valley Art Association hosted their annual Spring Art Show and Silent Auction at the Gene Bianchi Community Center in Oakdale, California. This event is a great opportunity for local artist to showcase their recent art projects, and for Oakdale residents, as well as travelers passing through, to experience our artistic culture. 

In 2023, I participated in the Oakdale Spring Art Show for the first time, presenting two dresses I created, as well as a series of Fashion Shoe Illustrations I had drawn in Ink. It was a great experience participating, and I knew I would be participating again in the upcoming years. I love representing Fashion at these artistic events, and I hope my work is inspiring to others, as other's artwork is inspiring to me. For the 2024 Oakdale Spring Art Show, I created a Doily Dress and Cape Ensemble, and I presented my Golden Poppy Day Dress that I created in 2023.

The textile I created using Vintage Doilies and a Vintage Tablecloth. 2024
Last year I purchased an old trunk filled with vintage doilies, linens, and tablecloths. For this art show project, I wanted to create a unique new textile using doilies and a vintage tablecloth from the fabric I acquired in the old trunk. I had the idea to create a new dress with the fabric. 

​I cut the vintage fabric into rectangles, backed each rectangle with muslin, then sewed all the rectangle pieces together to create a new textile that was truly unique. I really enjoyed the process of this old fabric transforming into a new dress and cape! I hope that you enjoy my latest fashion creation! It was a lot of work!
