Butterfly Wing Mural

Butterfly Wing Mural A few years ago I went back to teaching after a long break and have been teaching art at a local junior high. And yes...the classes are large and no...the pay is not great and sure it is a lot of work but honestly....I kind of love it. I get to hang out with quirky teens, work on crazy projects, and talk about all of my favorite artists and artworks. My current classroom takes up both sides of an older trailer parked behind the school. I call this trailer ... View the Post

Fusion Quilt…The Quilt That Time Forgot….

Fusion Quilt So there I am looking at some photos on my phone from last summer when I run across a pocket of quilt photos....photos of a quilt that I didn't even remember making! What I found is a version of a quilt pattern that I made awhile back but have never released that I called the "Fusion Quilt". I called this pattern the Fusion Quilt because it was designed to have the boldest print as the focal point and then less complicated prints as the patterned prints work their way ... View the Post
