This is the third "notebook quilt" - a small series of ~50" x 60" quilts that look like doodles on a page. I call it "Notes on American History." The quilting lists some of King George's wrongs described in the Declaration of Independence that apply to the tyrant in the White House today.

An Irish Blessing on St. Patrick's Day May those who love us, love us; And for those who don't love us, May God turn their hearts; And if He doesn't turn their hearts, May He turn their ankles, So we will know them by their limping.

So excited to have my drawing Luna receive 1st place in not only the 4th quarter competition, but also in the overall year-end round of jurying! Thank you, #dakotapastels and jurors for this honor, for seeing my work and for the thoughtful writing about it 🙏 #contemporaryart #drawing #softpastel

Beginning my posting (vs. just reading) @bsky.app as a contemporary artist who mostly draws with soft pastels. Looking forward to building a community here. Starting a new drawing this week and a new semester on Monday. Here we go 🙌 #art #drawing #contemporaryart
