I was thinking through what else I’m looking forward to this holiday season and I realized I haven’t mentioned it on here, just on discord, but— MY MOMS BEEN MAKING ME A REALLY COOL ART THING??
I think I’ve talked about it before, but my mom has been a quilter for most of my life and in the last few years started doing these really cool fabric collages, and it was my turn to request one so I asked for a phoenix cause I’m obsessed with this one art piece I did in art therapy ages ago
Tumblr media
Anyway, my mom has been working on it and THIS was the last update I got???
Tumblr media
I’m so excited for it?? Can’t wait to see where it’s at by the time I get there this weekend

Though they are undoubtedly committed to the Cause, this unique research unit (combining Veronique, her Divine Fealty, and their followers with an out-of-time NEH Sleep Detachment squad) hope for a day when they can be something other than soldiers.
Rose River, New Oath, and the Divine Fealty!

A little while ago I made this fabric-portrait-collage thing of John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants for art class. @tmbgareok

Many changes were made along the way, as well as double that amount of mistakes. I’m still baffled that this was good enough to win Pennsylvania Art Education Association’s Fiber category award, or win a Scholastics Silver Key award, or any of that, but I’ll take it. I was frustrated at times because I knew I might not consider this my best work (not that I would be able to pick something that I would choose to consider my absolute best) and yet it was being the one getting so much recognition, but if anything it just inspires me to continue trying to put my work out there, especially pieces I’m extra proud of.

This was the reference image I used, and I swear I tried so hard to make him smile the frown was NOT deliberate thank you very much. Basically I posterized the image, traced the values, made pieces, cut them out, and then some other riveting stuff. Okay, but actually, it was a pretty fun (albeit frustrating) process. The idea stemmed from Bisa Butler’s quilted portraits, and oh my gosh, they’re these amazing full sized quilts!!! If you like my work here, I would give her name a search. I would also give it a search if you don’t like my work. It’s so weird to look at your piece on websites and be able to point out several mistakes when all of the others look perfect, but maybe the other artists feel the same way. Or I just need to get better, I dunno.
I’m so grateful to have been given this opportunity, and I thank everyone who has given me support and encouragement to continue making art. I also must thank John & John, the inspiration for this project. There’s not much competition against TMBG when it comes to being my favorite band, really. There’s no other band I know that doesn’t have a single song I’ve heard and haven’t liked.
Oh, that’s… yeah, that’s a lot of words. If you read all of that, hey, I appreciate you! And John, if you see this, I can’t wait to see your show in Pittsburgh this May! Thanks! :)

Been playing with monoprints and quilting. Mixed media, used a gelli plate with acrylics and alcohol inks and little bit of this and a little bit of that.

working in an art gallery and talking to a lot of full time artists has given me CRAZY imposter syndrome btw lmao
#i went to a local gallery today (not the one i work in)#and i was looking at this one artists work#and she used a lot of patterns but didnt go up to her#she came up to me as i was looking at her work like ' hi i see youre looking at my work which one do u like most' like okay#i had my headphones on at the time so it did scare me#anyway im really stuck thinking about her work#like shes got this lovely cluttered and messy and chaotic style with still life in one dimension#and she uses pattern and quilt-like grids and so much colour#and the chaos of her work is by far the best part#how nothing stays in their boxes andeverythings falling#its homely and DRAMATIC. which is a mix that doesnt always go together but is held together by the chaos of her work#AND THEN SHE PUTS COLLAGE QUOTES ON IT 'fly high in the sky like a butterfly'#AUUUGGGHHH it pisses me off so much. REALLY? THATS THE BEST QUOTE? no song lyrics no deepp meaning nothing to express the narrative? bitch#love her style but its KITCH shes KITCH her quotes are KITCH her subjects are KITCH <- lives in kitch central of the uk but WHATEVER#by the way im not exagerrating with fly high like a butterfly she really thought that was the quote to describe this chaotic scene like she#eight years old like what the hell. there ere others too the pissed me off#and then i talked to her and she was like. WEIRDLY insistant tht even though she used stencils and that her dughter and husbnd drew anythin#mildly complicated that she had still done a lot of work I HADNT SAID ANYTHING#but she was just BRUSHING OVER whenever i mentioned her patterns and stencils like she was ASHAMED#like what the hell im all for having fun with what you draw but youre three times my age and i can draw a bird better than our adult daught#also i spoke to her turns out she knows my stepdad so that was an odd link but whatever#anyway artists that give me imostersyndrome are my boss who does realism in WATERCOLOUR#oh the woman in the gallery also gave me a printed card whcih was cool since i was going to buy one just to be mad at

an art quilt sample. its about 14x18in i think.
pentel dye sticks, procion dye on top of some of the fabric treated with the dye sticks, and scraps sandwiched between a backing fabric and a layer of tulle so that when i free-motioned sewed it in the machine the little scraps wouldn't get caught in the ring of the machine foot. there's a specific quilter that does this and my teacher based on the idea to me but i can't find her name rn :(
