Sponsor Award at Art Central

Quilts while they were a work in progress.
This is the beginning of my quilt pieces.  I sold a triptych at Spiva Center for the Arts (Joplin) last year at the Midwest Clay Artists show.  The two comments I received were "They were too inexpensive (an easy fix) and that there should be a larger installation".  So with that in mind, I expanded the three pieces to six.  Then at the last minute I decided to enter those in the membership show at Art Central (Carthage).  I was pleasantly surprised when I won the Sponsor Award.

And I like the way the director chose to hang them.  I guess that is one of the really cool features in regards to this work.  You can change the look according to how you decide to hang each piece.  Fun and a little different than most work that I do...future exploration?  Probably.  I tend to "revisit" past ideas as my confidence and skill level advances.  So much to do with clay, so little time!

Thanks for visiting!!
