Happy December!
As we approach the Winter Solstice, and the long dark nights, we are finding ways to generate our own light from within.
We are writing to you, as our first real snowstorm is hitting here in Boulder Colorado. I will be sharing images from the Taiwan Quilt Festival over the next couple weeks. Enjoy!
Artist: Pan Yu Ying
“Source, Circle – Be Your Own Light”
200 cm x 200 cm (79″ x 79″)
Artist Statement:
I have always liked painting, and in recent years I have learned light watercolor sketches and dyed fabric flowers. I like the rendering effect of watercolors. This work uses fabrics to express the watercolor effect, so the petals of the flowers have the effect of dancing in the wind.
Materials:
Cotton, organza, pearl yarn, wool, wire, sequins, beads, crystals.
My comments:
This large luminous quilt had layers of sheer organza and brilliant cottons in floral jeweltones, with 3-D embellishment details. The bright colors really ‘pop’ on the solid black background.
Sharing your passion for fabric…
