Hello! I’m Shannon Moore

ABOUT ME

I'm a multimedia and fiber artist living in Bellingham. I love creating art and collaborating with other people, whether it's teaching needle felting classes, building festival creations for Fire and Story, or creating tools like sketchbooks, covers, and kits for artists that I personally love and have battle tested in the field of life.

I obsess over craft and collaboration. Please join me for Art Parties where I host needle felting workshops. I'm excited to build a space where people create together.

MY ART AND MY SKETCHBOOKS

I work primarily in pen, watercolor, paper, needle felting, and sewing, often combining them in ways that feel interesting, ridiculous, or shamelessly both!

I also make sketchbooks and covers because I'm VERY picky. Working constantly out of sketchbooks with unpredictable mediums means I needed ones that actually worked and held up to adventuring, travel, and the occasional beer being spilled on them.

Everyone deserves a sketchbook they resonate with, and I love and battle test mine.

DM me for information on my sketchbooks!

BETHANY - Stage Art for Non-profit Paper Whale

Bethany is a giant needle and wet felted octopus that Tidepool Collective and Paper Whale commissioned me to build for Fire & Story.

She's been making the festival rounds this year - Fire & Story, Rising Tides, and APOG - where the stage builders (myself included) manipulate her arms to build whatever they're dreaming up. Her tentacles are fully posable and she glows under blacklight, so she's pretty flexible for whatever madness they want to create.

Collaborative festival art is core to my practice as an artist. If you're looking to create something ambitious for an event, let's talk.

FIRE AND STORY - Stage Art for Non-profit Paper Whale

Fire and Story are life-size owls made of paper, wire, and needle felt. Both were part of Song Stage for the winter festival of the same name (Fire & Story) in 2025.

OTHERWORKS

In addition to art work (located on my Instagram and in the Portfolio section), I also create art for bands including t-shirt art and logos.

Bands include Bellingham locals Spider Cult and Kronovale, Seattle based Savsatt, and Chicago based Sioum.
