Our story: where passion blooms forever

Welcome to The Felt Artist, where the timeless beauty of nature meets masterful craftsmanship on the serene shores of Saltspring Island, British Columbia, Canada. Founded by Krista Cutlan, a visionary artist,  this studio celebrates her profound passion for

floral design and artistic expression through exquisite felt creations.

A journey from hospitality to floral art

After over two decades in the hospitality spa and hotel industry, Krista discovered her true calling amidst the idyllic landscapes of Saltspring Island. This journey led her to transform sustainable materials—Merino Wool and felt blends sourced from around the world—into breathtaking, everlasting blooms that capture the essence of real flowers, without ever fading or wilting.

Meticulous craftsmanship & sustainable beauty

Each piece at The Felt Artist is meticulously handcrafted with a keen eye for detail, blending vibrant colours, realistic textures, and creative flair to produce one-of-a-kind art arrangements. Our commitment extends to sustainability, utilizing  Merino Wool and  Felt Blends from around the world, ensuring that every creation not only beautifies your space but also honors our planet.

Inspired by nature, reinterpreted through art

Inspired by the natural splendor of the West Coast, Krista's work ranges from stunning reproductions of iconic paintings, such as Van Gogh's Sunflowers and Odion Redon's florals, to whimsical bouquets of local Saltspring wildflowers arranged in vintage vases  or your own custom design. Each creation is designed to infuse spaces with joy, elegance, and a touch of eternal spring.

Bringing Eternal Beauty to your home

As a proud supporting member of the Canadian Federation of Artists, Krista invites you to explore her collection. We want you to remember The Felt Artist as a place where art blooms forever, where passion meets meticulous craftsmanship, and where sustainable beauty brings lasting joy and elegance to your world.
