Coming soon is Billy Grrrl my updated website and re-designed blog.
In the meantime you can “like” the Billy Grrrl facebook page. I will still
be posting about art & design that incorporate thread as well as photography.
I’m looking for art to feature on my forthcoming newly
re-branded blog. I would like to open this call to my readers
since I have received such wonderful links to your art in the past
I will still be focusing on art that incorporates
thread, along with photography, collage and modern craft. Please
send links or recommendations – don’t be shy!

Polish artist Natalia Wierzbicka explores motherhood and
her relationship with her son in these beautiful, stitched photographs.
Ezster’s series, Wooly Sagas, remind me of Gerhardt Richter paintings.
Landscapes made from wool and photographed, creating blurry, surreal
environments.
Photographer Jenny Van Sommers alters the pages of
Realities magazine for her surreal project, Series 9. Though these
photographs have nothing to do with thread, the painted cardboard
geometric shapes have a textile feel to them. Images via Nowness
Wooly head series by British photographer Louise Walker.
Louise is a commercial photography student and avid knitter.
