Although I've been sewing since the age of four, I only started quilting in 1998. It took me a whole year to complete the first one. For the story of how I began in this new medium, visit my Nana Sue's Garden page. This month, I've started "A Quilted Painting A Day" which you can see on my blog at clvquilts.blogspot.com When I'm not making art quilts, I'm writing about them or the artists who create them. My latest article is in the Art Calendar magazine September 2006 issue. After being a computer consultant for 15 years, I now create Quilted Paintings and Computer Collages. |
General Artist Statement:
When I'm not working on landscape and seascape commissions for my clients, my
own artwork is a study about technology's impact on our lives. With titles such
as "Fried Circuits", "System
Overload", "Keyboard Lockup",
"Motherboard Meltdown",
"Cyber Chick",
"Techno Jam",
"Mixed Media"and "Terminal Eyestrain" the Computer
Collages have struck a responsive chord with many viewers. They bring out feelings
of how microchips have infiltrated and complicated our daily routines. All these
automated gadgets were supposed to make our lives simpler; but the benefits
come hand-in-hand with new sources of stress.
