Holly Badgley
is a dynamic textile artist based in Sausalito, California who creates exciting,
beautifully hand-painted clothing and fiber art. She uses thickened dyes to
impart rich colors to wool, silks and velvets. These luxurious textiles are
then silkscreened with symbolic designs and stitched into one-of-a-kind raiments
with timeless styles.
Holly’s strong visual sensibilities express ethnic,
talismanic flavors influenced by the many years she spent living in Morocco,
France and Spain. Her work is a life-long exploration of the relationship
between color, composition and balance, combined with graphic elements of
personal symbolism.
