About Faces Exhibit











About Faces Exhibit is at the Plymouth Arts Council this month. The caricatures of my daughters entitled, "Who, Me?"and my Alzheimer's Mixed Emotions quilt were juried in the exhibit along with some great artwork.

Op Art x Five



A combined challenge for the Fast Friday Group to use Line and Color and the Creative Seasons Group to use Five.

I found an intriguing picture on pinterest which led to this project of op art in the style of Bridget Riley.

I drew around my hand, added curved lines and text to describe me in my hand portrait. I wanted to use a red and yellow fabric to show my hot flashes.

I drew it out several times with a permanent marker. Then, I printed out my drawing on Extravaganza and layered it on top. Turns out the sheer printed fabric had a blue tint because the red fabric underneath appears purple!
