Cutler

Dianne Cutler - I grew up on the edge of a patch of woods in Vermont. As a young girl, I would wander around the woods, pick wildflowers from ditches and collect rocks that I would put in a shoebox to tuck under my bed. I would pretend that I could talk to the animals, dress my dog up in clothes and strain my head to the moon, if I was lucky enough to have it shine down on my pillow. I was a nature child. I belonged to the Earth and the Earth belonged to me. I am now in the middle years of my life. I have traveled down many different educational paths and professions. Some of it was rewarding, but much of it was not. I veered off the path for a while, but I am finding my way back. I am rediscovering the joy of nature and how it speaks to me through my work.

I am a plaster and textile artist. My work is etherial and fragile. It is the manifestation of a personal conversation that I have with plants. I am a self taught artist on a never ending journey to express something that is true and of beauty, that will speak to your heart and bring the spirit of nature into your home.
