Hi, I'm Roxane Lessa, the Art Quilters Coach, aka fiber artist and teacher, aka mother of 2 girls. I live and work part time at my art quilt coaching and teaching, I make art quilts and I work part time in a local BERNINA store in Raleigh, NC.
Q: Do you have your own studio or do you work wherever you can find a spot? What is your favorite and least favorite feature of your work space?
A: I have my own studio, which I wish had more natural light. My favorite feature is my Bernina 750 QE, and a closet for most of my supplies.
Q: Do you offer a professional service?
A: Why yes I do! I offer a private art quilting program for quilters who want to take their art quilting seriously. This is a 6 month program called the Private Art Quilt Mastery Program. I work with students from afar by live video meetings. In this program, I have distilled my 17 years of art quilting into do-able lessons, and customized coaching. I also have some online classes. All information about classes and coaching are listed on my blog menu at www.blog.roxanelessa.com I am also quite active on my FaceBook page at www.facebook.com/RoxaneLessaArtist
My online portfolio is at www.RoxaneLessa.com
Q: In addition to art quilting, do you engage in any other artistic endeavors?
A: Yes! I am an avid West Coast Swing dancer, and I love to knit.
Q: Do you ever get up in the middle of the night and start sewing?
A: Nope, never. Sleep is too important to me! And I do my best work when I am rested in the morning.
