Lady and Cat, Patron Saint of Worm and Flea Treatments by Tanya Bentham.Seasons composite by Tanya Bentham.Our topic this week is Opus Anglicanum and our artist is Tanya Bentham. In our conversation, we learn how Tanya became attached to the art form/technique and why, the difference between pre-Black Death and post-Black Death techniques, and how she approaches color. Tanya reproduces original pieces and creates many of her own designs. Her own designs are a lot of fun so take time to explore them and enjoy Tanya’s sense of humor. Tanya also dyes all of her own wool for her kits so she can get the colors she wants. Tanya has authored three books on Opus Anglicanum that will help you develop your own skills. Check them out, along with her designs/kits, at opusanglicanumembroidery.com. You can learn more about Tanya’s work and what others are doing by joining her Facebook group.
