Artist Statement:
My education and work
experience has been as a
graphic designer and also as
an instructor of both graphic
design and desktop publishing.
I enjoy doing other
artwork—watercolor painting,
photography, mixed media and
pressed flowers—but it’s the
quilts that I’m compelled to
work on. Sometimes I get an
idea like a flash and other
times the fabrics tell me what
they want to be.
What interests me about
traditional quilting is how a
quilt square can look
completely different if the
shapes that make up the square
are in different colors or
tones of the fabric. I am also
interested in the secondary
patterns that emerge when
quilt blocks are arranged
together.
After making many quilts for
myself and for friends and
family, I decided to create
some of my own designs, both
in a traditional quilting
style and also as art quilts.
