Our 55+ community is a very active one. On June 11th, the craft committee is presenting our first Art Showcase highlighting the many artists & their students who reside in Heritage Placer Vineyards. It's a way for folks to learn about our ongoing art classes and for students to share their accomplishments.
I'm flattered to be included and will be exhibiting 'hands on samples' of the many different techniques utilized in my pieces. Viewers can see how those methods translated into finished art quilts with ongoing Q & A opportunities.
My art quilt inventory includes various widely exhibited, published and award winning pieces from earlier in my career. The practicality of continued storage had led to the decision that they need new homes where they can be enjoyed. Here are two that I'll be sharing on Thursday at the Forum.
HERE COME THE HYBRIDS - 45" X 45" - It's a hand appliquéd, hand quilted, & embellished whimsy art quilt created as a spoof of the name of the international traveling exhibit "Enchanted Gardens" it was made for.
SUNSHINE IN MY GARDEN - 38" X 50" - The motifs feature 'bead appliqué, a technique I developed for one of my books. It features silk ribbons & flowers attached to a patchwork background.
