#107 - Tessa Perlow, Witch-Crafter

Tessa Perlow is an artist specializing in embroidery and beading. Her work is inspired by magic and nature, and she uses stitching to transform second hand materials into special, one of a kind pieces. Tessa was born and raised in New Jersey and grew up with a passion for arts and crafts. She went on to study fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC and then fell in love with embroidery post-grad while pursuing a path as an independent working artist. Symbols play a large role in her work often with recurring themes of plants and animals in a dreamy fantasy space. This year Tessa launched a YouTube channel, creating videos showing behind the scenes processes as well as tutorials. Tessa is currently based in Philadelphia, PA, and when she is not in her workroom stitching in the company of her cats Uzi and Dru, she is usually going on nature walks in the nearby parks and forests.

On this episode, Tessa discusses the magic of adornment, the power of combining of art with Craft, and favorite influences on her bewitching work.

Pam also talks about hands as magical conductors and answers a listener question about connecting to the divinity of her own backyard.
