Laura A. Seed - LASH

Laura Seed is the daughter of Paul and Penny Seed,  two very talented artists who brought Laura up teaching her all that they knew about art.  Laura grew up in an art house and has been creating since she could walk.  She designs and makes one of a kind:  handbags, jewelry, accessories and clothing along with a lot of the art images used on her creations.  She enjoys working with all different types of materials; one of her favorites is paper as she also makes beautifully detailed greeting cards.  Along with designing Laura draws, paints, sculpts and creates all different types of artwork.  She is also a strong believer in re-using things, not only as a lover of all things vintage or retro but to help the environment as well.  So she will sometimes re-use things like: paper, envelopes, cardboard, buttons, boxes, packaging, beads, fabric and other miscellaneous items.   These help to make her creations even more special and completely one of a kind.  

She always says, “I just want to make things”.  Or “I’m not happy until I am making something”.  That is about all there is to know, according to Laura.

Penny Seed

Penny Seed first became intrigued with the ancient art of basket weaving in a fiber art class in college at U.W River Falls where she received a bachelor of fine arts degree.  The forms and patterns of native baskets were so alluring and after coiling her first basket she was hooked.  She finds the process to be a very relaxing art form.  The coiling process produces geometric patterns and she works at making their patterns more abstract.  Also her use of modern materials, wool and acrylic yarns of bright colors to help make her baskets look contemporary.  These one of a kind hand made baskets take eighty to a hundred hours to make (at least) as each coil is wrapped then a figure eight stitch hold each coil to the next.
