Fiber exhibits both real and digital

Time has been flying past my previous creative work keeping it 
at a stand still as I work on a commission. 
I am still collecting butterfly photos....
.... while the  many finished butterflies are waiting
 to be included in an art work.
At this time my 'Variations on K' artwork is included in this SPUN exhibit.
Variations on K (KISS) is 24 by 18 inches.
Kiss in many languages including sign language.
Embroidery on hand-dyed cotton fabric.
 
'No Answer' (belowis 23 by 20 inches and will be 
in the digital exhibit titled 'To The Point' 
at the Visions Art Museum in San Diego 
in early October.
In case you cannot read the words in No Answer
the letters are created with window screening 
and then covered with thread.
 The words say, "What is the Question?"
 When I finish the commission 
 I will write about the steps 
it took in creating the final art work.

Art Work Comes and Goes

Often my artwork comes and goes. 
Some pieces travel further than I have ever travelled.
 Not Always Green has recently returned form The Taiwan 
International Quilt Exhibition 2016 in Tainan City, Taiwan.
Window Box is now at the International Korea  Bojagi Exhibit 
in Seoul, South Korea
KISS: In Any Language is leaving tomorrow
 to go to the SPUN 2016 Innovative Fiber Exhibition 
in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The opening will be September 10, 2016.  
 Three Flowers left the studio for places unknown. 
They may be at Vicky Fogg's desk at
the Washington Post or where ever she wanted to hang it.?
 I have been thinking about butterflies for the past month 
and wondering how I can show them as the delicate 
winged creatures they are. Perhaps in a cluster.
Maybe as small lacy versions of themselves?
And I am looking at old paintings. 
This is probably 5 by 6 feet,  50 years old, 
and loosely painted on plywood.
Keep watching as I love a puzzle 
and don't know what is coming next.
