Name: Genevieve Goetz
What county do you live in?: Columbia
Brief Biography: I live in Hudson Valley and really love the beauty around me. I am a librarian at Chatham Public Library, and Albany Public Library. I truly enjoy what I do and feel very lucky. I studied Black and White Photography for my BA. I found I am drawn to making art with my hands. My first art show was on Main Street in Chatham and is such a special memory. More recently, I’ve tried many different mediums of art and found myself watching videos on how to stitch. Learning a new way to create and express myself is still a exciting journey. I’m also very inspired by many other variations of modern fiber arts, like needle painting.
How long have you been living/working in the Hudson Valley?: 8 years
Where or what are your favorite things to do in the Hudson Valley?: I love to be outdoors, hiking, swimming, paddle boarding. I also really enjoy going to local farms and markets. Local theaters are very fun, along with yoga studios.
Describe your work: Hand embroidery on upcycled fashion and home decor
Anything else we should know about you and your work?: I believe inspiration can be found anywhere, and it’s never too late to try something new. Art is very therapeutic and I’m very grateful for such a supportive and inspiring maker community!
