Textures Exhibit - Reception October 10th


Time sure flies! It's almost time for the Textures Fiber Art Exhibit featuring the much talked about "50th Year Quilt" at the Merc Gallery here in Temecula California. D uring the same period, I'll be featuring the "Green Quilt" over at the Temecula Library. How exciting! These are the first of several showings I plan on participating in the near future. I'm loving this time in my life. So much to look forward to! My work keeps me busy during the day, and my crafts (fiber arts and oil painting) have me busy during the evenings and weekend. I took a needed day off today to relax, reflect and then finally to plan the details of the next several weeks... Stay tuned...
