Little Gull: Lost at Sea



Starting a new Kindle kid's picture book with old Illustrator CS5 vector art.  Laborious, but a nice hobby to pursue while I'm nursing husband back to health after staph sepsis.

New Artwork done in Portland





Top to Bottom:
Two drawings with colored pencil on 6x9 black paper
1.  Riley on my Lap
2.  Sunflower in Vase (a common theme)

Three pen & ink and watercolor paintings on 9x12
1.  Weightless - inspired by a 1955 untitled ink on paper work by Diebenkorn seen at the Portland Museum
2.  Wilson with his Watch:  Not a good likeness at all, except for the watch
3.  Clear Zone - not a happy painting, perhaps a premonition of bad health issues currently being managed

California Sunshine Quilt


Finally finished my mega quilt!  80 individual photographs printed on fabric and woven into the quilt using an original plaid design.  Photos of my artist wooden models were used as templates for the four characters, which were then appliqued onto silk swatches using some cool Martha Negley designed fabric.  They looked a bit naked, even after adding the birds, so I later added bathing suits with a fabric I designed and printed.  The quilt is so big (74 1/4" h x 66 3/4" w) I had to do it in three sections then sew the sections together at the end.  What's going on in this quilt, you ask?  Well, I love California, I love the sun, I love taking photos in my neighborhood on sunny days, and I love birds.
