"El Cielo" (el c-eh-lo) in Spanish means "the sky" or "the heavens." "Taller" (ta-yér) is Spanish for "workshop" or "craftsman's studio."
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.

The pictures speak for themselves. A fine time was had by all; everyone (including me) took away a better understanding of color and how to make it work. Can you figure out the exercises that guided the creation of these artist's postcards? (These are Val Grebe's, and the clearest of my bad photos from the end of the day! Diane Sandlin's are at the top of the blog post.Trust me , the colors were really better!)
