Carole Waller handpainted silk noil Indian shirt dress ‘Clouds’. It is an unstructured elegant long shirt dress, silk noil is noted for its matte finish and slightly textured weave. It has painted buttons down the front and a slightly upright collar and side slits in the seams – plus side pockets. It can be worn many ways as a dress, shirt, tunic over trousers or as a long jacket.
The colours include sandy yellows and cream, blush pinks, washed greys, white, slate.
‘Clouds’ is a collection of unique painted garments by Carole Waller. The stormy Spring weather of 2024 has shown us remarkable cloud formations moving swiftly across each other and occasionally resting with dramatic contrasts of light and dark. These have been mesmerising – and fascinating in their restlessness. These paintings have no screenprint or narrative, just drawn line, movement and colour in an exploration of cross-currents, light and dark, change and infinity.

I use my fabrics as unprimed ‘canvases’ and the paintings evolve as I work, so no two pieces are the same. I also make bespoke commissions. Although I cannot colour match, I can promise you a unique artwork. Visitors welome anytime, by appointment. Waller and Wood is our gallery name from the time we had a retail space in Bath between 2015 and 2020. My studio and small showroom is now at our home 4 miles east of Bath on the A4, with good parking and a warm welcome. The code for this piece is GS24/122 photo : Egle Vasi |
