Fiber and Craft Artist

This time I just Jim Drain to talk about. I had to go through a couple of artists to actually find one that I enjoyed. After about 4 or 5 artists that I just could not handle I finally came across the awesome and super bright and colorful works of Mr. Drain. At first I did not know that the material he was using was yarn! Usually I do not think that artwork that uses yarn or string is really that cool unless it blows my mind but Jim Drain does something unique with this material that I have not seen before. He creates crazy elaborate environments and situations while using great lengths of yarn to do so. I also really enjoy his works because they are not something that you look down at and then walk by. No. These things are freaking big and with all the changing colors throughout the whole thing there is not a way in the world to ignore it. Jim Drain is an artist, there is no doubt, but some people do not see him as such. Instead, they view him as a designer with innovative and new ideas for fashion. This is not the case. Even though he may make a sweater, you can see his personal artistic take on the idea each work tells a great story.
