Maine was home to fabric artist Diane Getty until she ventured to Albuquerque, NM to attend the University of New Mexico. Upon completing her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with an emphasis in metalwork and jewelry, Getty continued her studies, earning her Master of Fine Arts degree at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, TN. Several moves and ten years later, Getty’s family returned to Tennessee where she resumed her career as an artist. She entered a new medium, shifting creative efforts almost entirely to work in fiber art and fabric collage. |

Artist Statement
“I am inspired by the beauty, patterns and colors of my home in the Cumberland Plateau and I work to interpret what I see. I experiment with painting on fabric and incorporating collage and stitching into my pieces. These methods help me articulate and interpret the layered intricacies of the landscape and its flora. Every piece challenges and delights me, as I am constantly learning about my subject matter and my creative resources. It’s the best of both worlds - the landscape and the process of creation sustain me." |
