Support Anaïs's New Art Project!

Hello everyone,

I just launched a new project for which I am going to need all art lovers' support!

Together with my friend Julie, who is a professional weaver in France, we are looking to get one of my pieces woven into a tapestry in the traditional Aubusson style. The first of many, we hope! In order to bring this first tapestry to life, we're launching a crowdfunding campaign.

Find out more about the project: https://www.kisskissbankbank.com/en/projects/projet-tapisserie-aubusson/
If you're curious about tapestry weaving, check out this 2-minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm-f17rxP7A

I hope you find the idea appealing and exciting! Please consider supporting us if you do!

Thank you all,

Anaïs
