I painted this and 100 more portraits ten years ago. It was part of a project I did with Debra Brehmer at #PortraitSocietyGallery. The idea was to paint all the renters and people who frequented the Marshall Building where the gallery is located. The show was a big success and a community bonding event. #portraitpainting #artinmilwaukee #marshallbuilding #contemporaryportraiture #milwaukee #fredbellpaintings (at Milwaukee, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLz1k4nHyqT/?igshid=nx37jxw3ymp4

PATCHPLAY // 3 years ago, @kim_romenesko referred a friend to MC to use this 3rd gen hand-me-down wool from an old rug maker. it was 8 giant garbage bags but i had no room in the studio for it, so we put it in my car and pulled it out on a tarp to color sort it over the next week and vaccuum store it in bags under my table. each winter when MC takes 2 weeks off to clean studio, i find some time to sew it. i spend 6 hours a few days a week to create a single 4ftx9ft panel from the wool. ive made 6 panels since that day. these 3 lined circle cut raglan sleeve patchwork coats were freestyle patterned from one panel each. they are for sale for $800 and on display to try on at the Seams show at @portraitsocietygallery filled with the amazing fiber art work of 14 amazing fiber artists! Go there thursday through sunday noon to 5 through November. . . . #improv #improvquilting #patchwork #coats #fallcoat #wintercoat #usamade #handmade #coatmaker #sewing #sew #handmadecoat #quiltedcoat (at Portrait Society Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGDJX8xnvw9/?igshid=el3mmbxxoltr

I visited Portrait Society Gallery on Thursday to see the show “Seams.” The show is very inspiring and one of the pieces I saw was by Sharon Kerry-Harlan. I’ve been seen her work on social media for some time but not in person. I was amazed by seeing the work in person. There is so much lost in a photo. I’ve included a second photo that shows the very intricate sewing that doesn’t show up in a jpeg. The attention to detail is breathtaking! Stop in to see it and all the other great work on display at PS. #portraitsocietygallery #milwaukeeartist #sewnworks #quilting #wallhangingartwork #wallartdecor #sharonkerryharlan https://www.instagram.com/p/CGLHuvqH7-i/?igshid=18c0yprgp0c1g
