Crayon box colors and whimsical geometrics are
characteristics of the fabrics that inspire me
to create an art quilt. The materials that
make their way into my designs are those that
not only play well together, but invite me in
for the fun.
Mathematics and music are strong influences in
my art. Dramatic curves, circular motifs,
and radiating elements create rhythm; repetition
of these features and the use of symmetry create
harmony. Interconnected feathers and curls
are used in the machine quilting to add flowing
movement, and many of my pieces are named after
favorite songs. All the parts of the
finished composition are chosen to bring a sense
of delight to the art -- and to the viewer.
