This is the poster that Gaston College prepared for the

To Their Watery Graves
This is my second interpretation of the theme Travelling Souls.
As I had mentioned in an earlier post, the images just would not let go of me
so I had to keep working through another piece.

Traveling Soles at the Jeanne Rauch Gallery
I've had the pleasure of being invited to participate in an art exhibit for which
the theme is any interpretation of "Traveling Soles."
I chose to exercise poetic and phonetic license (with the curators' blessing)
by interpreting the idea as Travelling Souls and, thus, this piece was born.
The image has been seared in my mind for years; I only hope I did it justice.

Sightlines Unveiled
Read all about it! Read all about it!
The catalog for the "Sightlines" show is out just in time for the inaugural event
in Houston, TX this week during the International Quilt Festival.
About a year ago, out of several hundred candidates, fourteen artists
were chosen to create an installation of artworks featuring a sightline
linking all the work in the exhibit. Each artist chose her own theme
and created a central piece plus an additional four linking pieces,
covering a total of ten feet in width each.
Photographer Gregory Case took this photo of my piece for the show's catalog.
Click on it to enlarge. I am so very pleased with this representation of my
work - thank you, Gregory. The detail photo is mine.

Performance Center for the Arts

I just got back from hanging a second piece in Rock Hill's
new Performance Center for the Arts. Here it is flanked
by Katie Medlock, Technology Coordinator for the
Arts Council of York County. Thanks also
to Harriet (and Martin!) Goode for having me again!
The piece is titled "Venezuelan Symphony" and I made
it as a tribute to my beloved homeland. Be sure to click
to enlarge so as to better see the hand-dyed fabrics.
This is one of several works that will be featured in a
spread in the soon-to-be-released book "1000 Artisan Textiles."

What We Lose Along the Way
51″h by 42w″
My piece "What We Lose Along The Way" now proudly hangs
in the atrium of Rock Hill's new Performance Center for the Arts.
Thinking back to when as a teen I fantasized about what I would do
in life, who I might become, where I might go, what I might achieve,
led me to put some of those feelings into this piece, not with a sense
of regret but, rather, the realization that letting go of some things
allowed me to achieve others, perhaps unimaginable at the time.
Maps, ideas, years, friends, countries, fears … What have you
lost along the way?
