Kate Laing is the artist behind Lionheart Canyon Studio, creating contemporary handwoven art from her home studio in Omaha, Nebraska. Inspired by her roots in the American Southwest, her work reflects the horizon lines, textures, and color stories of desert landscapes.
For over a decade, Kate has woven heirloom-quality pieces that weaves modern design with timeless craftsmanship. She is passionate about exploring the natural world, and also enjoys the comfort of returning to a cozy home. This sense of wild beauty merges with the tactile softness of her artwork.

of fiber as sculpture
These new works embrace the process of intentionally manipulating the handwoven elements, once released from the tension of the loom. The woven artworks are ethereally framed by a natural birch wood panel, creating an opportunity for exciting new texture and dimension.

This mounted weaving by artist Kate Laing embraces the process of intentionally manipulating the handwoven forms, once removed from the tension of the loom. They are framed by a natural birch wood panel, creating an opportunity for exciting new texture and dimension.
The birch wood panel has been wired for easy wall mounting, adding texture to a gallery wall or as standalone piece. It can also balance vertically on a bookshelf or table. Whether hung or placed, this piece adds a natural, contemporary look to any room.
ARTWORK INFORMATION
The birch wood panel is 8 × 10 × 7/8 inches, and is wired on the back.
The fiber element was handwoven by Kate Laing on a wooden frame loom with recycled cotton cord. It was handsewn to the panel through several small holes — no adhesive was used.
Collected artwork will be wrapped neatly in paper and tied with twine, and packaged safely to travel to your doorstep.
Payment plan available via Afterpay at checkout. Free local pick up in Omaha, NE is available, and shipping is available throughout the United States. Please contact Kate at hello@lionheartcanyonstudio.com for international interest.
