I wanted people to participate in what I was doing. I printed out several fabric peices that had the same pattern. The pattern was simple and had an empty space for each person to fill in their own design. I will sew them all together to create a quilt that will connect the pattern.

Homecoming parade in Corning

I had my first solo show this past weekend in Corning, IA at the Corning Center for Fine Art. The show was a mix of peices that included painting, prints, fabric, and found objects. I stayed over the weekend and participated in homecoming festivities. I also did demonstrations and had participation with people who were interested in making their own peice. It was a lot of fun meeting new people and being part of the events.

For the month of August I was out drawing images for this US Cellular campaign. Each time we were out, I had to draw three images in order to attract people to participating. It was a good experience but I'm glad it's done.
