Art Quilts

Forest Walk full correction

“Forest Walk” (see above) is using painted dryer sheets, gelli printing, and organza with lots of hand stitching and machine quilting on fusible batting.  It’s a very filmy piece with uneven edges.  I recently read about “forest bathing” and this is a reference to total immersion in the forest experience.

“Submerged” (below) shows lots of texture and the viewer can see what lies underwater in my fantasy microcosm.  I have used painted Tyvek, cheesecloth, sun printed fabric and hand painted fabric along with some coral and a sea shell.
