This week's topic is about fixing or correcting your work when you have used pigments and do not like the results. My example for this newsletter is Mother Teresa - Let Us Begin, 24" x 24". This piece was created for a 2014 Notable Women Initiative Call for Entry by the Rogue Art Quilters of Ashland, Oregon. The image at the top is the final version of this award-winning piece.

If you think about it, this is a very good question! Is coloring on fabric like coloring on paper? There is not a simple, straightforward answer to this question! In this week's newsletter, and later ones as well, I will explore this in more detail. But you may not be happy with my answer. And, as much as I hate saying this, the only way to truly answer the question is to say "It depends!".

Yes, that is a hedgehog. Well actually, technically, it is a half-hedgehog-half-human. And yes, he is holding a pair of bag-pipes. And he is riding a rooster. Not just any rooster, a "shod" cock-rooster - see his fancy shoes?

Do you consider yourself an Artist?  So, what is an "artist"?  There are many different definitions and nuances when it comes to deciding what an artist really is.  Can we be so bold as to claim to be an artist?  I think "Yes"!  

New Years day was just as cold if not colder! Our day was spent getting in and out of layers of warm weather gear so we could feed the horses and goats making sure they had a constant supply of hay throughout the day. That fiber was important because it would help keep them warm. We also had to muck (clean) the corral of frozen manure to make it safer. It took longer to get dressed and undressed than to do the chores! Ha!
