Notes, D.H.Lawerence
Squeeeedly deeedly deadly dee!
'Notes' another work sold!
Painted, monoprinted, thermal fax silkscreen of quote by D.H. Lawrence, and drawing. Silk noil, quilted, and presented on stretcher bars. 8x24 set of 5 notes
Notes was inspired by one of my favorite
quilt artists- Joan Schultz and potter and poet- Paulus Berenshon.
Joan, the
technique and freedom to mono-print fabric.
Paulus, the poetry and words.
These
pieces were mono printed several times and silkscreened with part of a poem by
D H Lawrence, unreadable but in part. I created an type of automatic writing
with acrylic that highlights parts of the pieces. This too is unreadable but
makes one inspect the piece closer.
They are just notes, things one writes to
remember.

Tender Revelations
Throw Back Thursday Art Quilt
Tender Revelations
2003- was enthused by reading the book, "After the Ecstasy, The Laundry" by Jack Kornfield. I was returning from a session at the Haystack School of Crafts in Deer Isle. Maine and listening to the book tape. I had to keep stopping to jot down notes in my journal. Tender Revelations was inspired from this quote; " What can we expect when we enter the forest? To listen more deeply to the quiet. The first steps bring us amazements of tender revelations."
All fabrics are created by the artist. They are dyed, mono-printed, sprayed, sun printed, painted and stamped. The fabrics are cottons, silk noil and organza. I intuitively curve- piece and quilt the artwork.
