I , Syd McCutcheon, aka Sheep Floozy, am is a mixed media artist. I know ...who isn’t? But along with painting, book arts, collage and assemblage, I have a long time love affair with fabric, starting with needle and thread in nursery school. I find combining fabric with other mediums is especially exciting. I like using lots of color and mixing up the textures and materials. Adding paint to fabric is a natural next step.
I live in a small community, Ballard, near Solvang, CA and co-
runs a studio / workshop, where I teach and work, called the
ART CLINIC. Once a year I coordinate a benefit art faire for Domestic
Violence Solutions called Queen of Arts.
