A small wall quilt $95.00
This wall piece explores the tension between holding & discretionary release through representation of a shape which involves a center & some sort of surround. Through use of texture and line, the direction of flow is indicated and the intensity of movement is highlighted.
Though meant to be exploratory, this piece is also soothing and contemplative. It would be a fabulous addition to a bathroom or entrance hall, where contemplation is encouraged and can be inspiring.
This 9 inch square piece is mounted on a 16 inch square stretched canvas with a wooden frame. The shipping charge can be minimized by shipping only the quilt and not the frame. Please convo for arrangements if desired.

White Lightening • Flag. a wall quilt
$2,250.00
The themes I explore in my work always circle back to exploring some sort of tension: Hold/release, accept/reject, binary/non-binary, strength/vulnerability. I appreciate the medium of quilts as a soft entry into potentially hard conversations about loaded topics and use my social collaborations to facilitate some of those opportunities. In this project, the jagged stripes and the high contrast colors of the flag are a nod to our current political atmosphere and resulting mood of our people as a nation.
