New home for “I Remain”

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Despite my best efforts, I seem to not be able to find time to produce any work. Maybe once the weather cools things will settle down and I can create something. I did some layered monoprinting, primarily with my left hand due to the surgery, over the summer and am anxious to start quilting them. I am also anxious to work on a large Toucan that I painted earlier this year.

A piece of good news, my piece “I Remain” has been purchased and is currently en route to Oregon to its new home. I was very excited to receive an email inquiry a couple of weeks ago based on seeing the piece in Houston last year. Happily, the new owner is very excited about buying the piece. The piece was my first large dye painted piece and was a work that symbolized the loss of a job but the desire to keep moving forward despite obstacles.

At Houston

Here is a picture of me standing in front of my quilt “I Remain” at the IQA quilt festival in Houston earlier this month. The trip was great and was my first trip to a major quilt show. My friend Jean accompanied me and I thank her for that, even though we were both feeling a little rough the day we left (she blames the wine and bourbon, but I am not convinced).

I also want to thank my friend Corinne for her work in getting both my website and this blog underway. I am truly blessed to have wonderful people in my life.
