The Nature's Palette Series is based upon my concept of Heaven and earth and began after a trip to Yellowstone National Park. One is inundated by the raw energy of nature - the intensity of the sky (heaven) and earth.
About My New Work
It has been said that my current work is the culmination of organized chaos but in truth it is simple. It's beginnings stem from the visualization of sound. Some so small to be classified as ambient noise. The daily sounds that we turn off or disregard in every day life. These sounds are then translated into colors and movement. While the process of quilting is traditional, I use a felt wall to start assembling my pieces. Using the same techniques as a painter, I assemble my fabric pieces into groups of colors and movement. Then I apply them in small section's as you would paint. While the process of achieving the final image is slow, I continue to add and remove sections until the final image is a cohesive unit. Only then do I start to include the final quilting into the piece.
