About the Artists

Fritzi Huber, a current artist at ACME Art Studios, was born to a traveling circus family, where creativity was abundant but water scarce. Drawn to the library scents of paper and the watery process it forms from, Fritzi has become locally and internationally for her mastery of hand papermaking, which she has practiced and taught for over 45 years.

Guest artist, Leslie Marsh, creates narrative embroideries whose traditional media recall the generations of women handworkers she descends from. In addition to bookmaking and other media, Leslie also felts flora and fungi with wool fiber and threads. Leslie’s work is held in private collections across the Americas, Europe and Australia.  She teaches workshops in her Hampstead home studio and at various sites across the US.

Rebecca Yeomans’ current art centers her love of nature through her study of botanical contact printmaking, infusing natural dyes into fabrics and papers. A lifelong artist who learned to knit at eight years old, Rebecca and her husband Tom moved to Wilmington, NC in 1984 where she worked as a scenic artist in the film industry before transitioning fully into artmaking. In the complicated, variable process of botanical printmaking, Rebecca co-creates with Mother Nature, intuitively embellishing her pieces with the printmaking process as her inspiration.
