À propos de Fleece Artist
La compagnie Fleece Artist fut fondée en 1978, porte à porte avec le Collège d'Art et de Design de Nouvelle Écosse. Ils fournissaient ainsi en fibres naturelles les artistes textiles. Pourtant, avec le temps, leurs clients demandèrent des
couleurs
plus "expressives" que celles disponibles. C'est ainsi qu'ils se penchèrent au-dessus des chaudrons et devinrent des magiciens de la teinture.
Aujourd'hui, cette petite entreprise familiale s'est enrichie d'une équipe diplômée de l'Université d'Arts de Nouvelles Écosse. Ensemble, ils créent des couleurs inspirantes au service des plus belles fibres naturelles.
