The art I make is the result of a life-long love of pattern, texture and color. How I teach is a skill honed by experience (I started teaching creative arts to younger kids when I was 12). After earning a B.A. in Studio Arts from Trinity University, I helped lead an internationally recognized educational foundation, designed curriculum exhibits for schools and other institutions, wrote and edited for a major daily newspaper, opened the San Antonio Children's Museum and then, a dozen years ago, took the scary but essential (for me) leap to become a fulltime artist and art teacher.

About This Blog

This weblog is about the maker's life. The teacher's path. The stitching and dyeing and printing of the craft of art cloth and art quilt. The stumbling around and the soaring, the way the words and the pictures come together. Poetry on the page and in the piecing of bright scraps together. The inner work and the outer journeys to and from. Practicalities and flights of fancy and fearful grandeur, trivial pursuits and tactile amusements. Expect new postings two or three times a week, unless you hear otherwise.

    Round Top and Copper Shade Tree Gallery

    We traveled yesterday to deliver art to Copper Shade Tree Gallery in beautiful Round Top, Texas. It was great to see Debbie and Gerald and to have my work in their new space. Here's what Gerald had to say about the move:

    "Last month I reported our upcoming move. Well, that is old news, we have completely moved to the new space and we love it. The artwork looks fantastic. With the help of artists, family, and friends we began packing and moving on August 28th and finished on August 31st. The process very smooth as planned. The great news is that we did not break or damage a single piece of artwork... a miracle. We moved directly across the street to Henkel Square."

    The first three photos above are some from Gerald, Linda and I took the other two, showing my work now in the gallery, and the three of us.
