My website is live and my shop is open! Welcome!

Here it is: my new website and shop! valstricklin.com

I’m so happy you’re visiting. Please have a look around. If I could, I would make you a cup of tea and serve you dessert in the garden under the maple tree. We could chat about your dreams and mine. Instead here’s a short list of what I’ve been up to and what’s next for me:

I will be adding art and other products for sale in the shop over the coming weeks. Check back often, I plan to add new offerings to the shop frequently.

I’m painting. A lot.

I have an art tent! And I’m going on the road to art shows, craft shows, shops, festivals, and retreats.

I’ve been making project bags and stitch markers for knitters and crocheters.

I’ve hand dyed lots of yarn and made lots of new items with it.

I’ve started a portfolio, and I look forward to expanding it.

I’m working on surface pattern design collections for licensing.

Soon you will be able to order prints of my art.

I’ve got sewing patterns in the testing phases.

I’ll be adding classes.

I’m happy to consider custom work.

If you are interested in talking about dreams which are being crafted into reality, reach out, I love to listen. I also love to collaborate.

I post frequently on Instagram. For behind the scenes process videos, peeks at new work, breathtaking Blue Ridge sunrises, and updates on my studio helpers Junie and Bee, that’s a great place to follow me.

I hope you’re finding joy in art!
