Good People
I thought about all those people in our lives who support us, teach us, entertain, heal, cook, share, help, and are ready to step up. They are Good People.
Good Balance
The newest piece for my Safe and Well series is called Good Balance. Can you think of examples of good balance?
Progress on Safe and Well
I have committed a year to a series I call Safe and Well. So far, I'm on track. This month I share two figurative pieces, each sure to lower your blood pressure.
neutral walls for artwork
There are neutral walls at my house. It's a bright airy facelift!
Looking at Light
These photos were my inspiration for creating a piece for the Chasing Light show.
Just Right
Goldilocks tried out bowls of porridge, chairs and beds, to find the ones that were just right.
Abstract Art Quilt
Below are my two newest abstract art pieces. Lullaby uses calm colors and a rocking repetition of shapes, similar to a melody in a song. The shape could be a cradle or a boat.
Art Plus Location
I sometimes create Contemporary Quilt Art for a specific location. When I ship off a completed commission for a unique space, I think about whether it will indeed add something good to that location.
I don't get it
I have at least one friend who is made uncomfortable by abstract art. Her response is usually,"I don't get it".
How is it done?
When you purchase artwork, you are also paying for the many years of practice and expertise of that artist. I have been using the medium of fabric for 50 years. There are hundreds of decisions that go into the making of artwork.
How Small? How Big?
The size of a project makes a difference.You might have to get a riding lawn mower! Buy lots of trowels, so the kids can help with the weeding! Budget more than one quick weekend to paint the house!
