| Introduction | Thea Haines is an artist and textile designer, who currently teaches textile design at Sheridan College, and numerous workshops in and around Hamilton. Her studio practice revolves around the use of natural dyes as an aspect of sustainable textile craft production - the focus of her 2012 MA thesis at Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. Lifelong and more recent obsessions include drawing, embroidery, baking pies, canning summer fruit, pickling the bounty of her vegetable garden, growing dye plants, and walking the woods and trails of Hamilton in search of local colour. |
