Press Release Signature Designer
Dyan ReaveleyFall 2011
Ranger is excited to announce mixed-media artist Dyan Reaveley as Ranger's newest Signature Designer. Dyan's unique, eclectic style comes through in her vibrant color combinations of inks and paints, using text as an insightful design element, and the clever use of imagery in her artwork.
Dyan and Ranger are developing a signature line of craft products called Dylusions, and she is already an integral part of the Ranger Designer Team. Dyan has been teaching and demoing with Ranger for several years and is known for her creativity with layering color, images and thought-provoking collages.
Dyan owns and operates a teaching and design studio Art from the Heart in Harrogate, in the north of England. Dyan shares a little about herself: "My mission is to introduce everyone to the fabulous therapy that is art journaling and creating mixed-media art. Art is not the finished result; it is the actual act of creating that emerges when you let yourself play. It is the journey it takes from the soul."
"Dyan's an inspiration and I look forward to seeing where she takes the Dylusions product line. Her passion for inks, paints and mediums knows no bounds. Dyan's ability to teach everyone from new crafters to seasoned mixed-media artists will complement all that we do at Ranger."—Alain Avrillon, Sales Director
"Creative innovation is always at our core here at Ranger, and we are excited to add the talents and artful stylings of Dyan Reaveley to our team."—Tim Holtz, Creative Director
Look for the Dylusions product line debut at the January 2012 Winter CHA Trade Show in Anaheim, California.
