I have been so busy this past week getting many pieces ready for the Danforth Museum of Art gift shop (yes, they want more) I haven't had time to blog post. This piece is cloth that I deconstructive screen printed and am now hand stitching. I was going to add more layers of dye but there was something about the simple nature of the first printing that made me leave it be. I really admire artists that are able to render their visions in works that are clean in design. Of course I also admire artists whose work is so filled with detail and stuff going on that it draws you in to keep looking and looking. Heck, I am an 'art harlot'...I love it all....Friday, November 7, 2008

Given the complexity of your usual style "staying the hand" is an admirable and bold move. You are right about the delicate simplicity.
I like this one very much!
Will you post another picture when it's all done?
What's deconstructive screen printing?
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog :)
