Saturday, Lu and I represented DAFA at the annual
ARTSPARK, sponsored by the
Business Council for the Arts. This event is held at North Park Center and participation is by invitation. We were in great company as there was a plethora of organizations representing various art forms. We shared a curtained wall with
KALIGRAFOS , The Dallas Calligraphy Guild (who knew). Many DAFA members are also members of other organizations such as
Creative Arts Center of Dallas,
The Craft Guild of Dallas,
Museum of Geometric and MADI Art so it was nice to see familiar faces. I may be a bit biased - but - I think we had the best looking booth. Lu and I brought a few pieces to share and
Jules let us use some of her beautiful hand dyes to decorate our table.

Sneak Peek
Here is a peek at some fabric I have been working on. I love surface design and I love to layer paint, dye, ink and anything else I can get my hands on. The ground is canvas and thus far I have used Golden Fluid Acrylics, Liquitex Acrylics, Adirondike Inks, Setacolor and salt. I am not sure how these pieces will end up - just that I am having fun. One piece will be used in an urban series I am working on and the other in a landscape (maybe).
