I am currently at Quilting By the Lake being held at Onondaga Community College in Onondaga NY.\u00a0 I’m studying with Fran Skiles<\/a>, a warm, sharing person with a relaxed, approachable style who made a point of stressing that she is not teaching a quiltmaking class, nor will we be making any quilts.\u00a0 Instead, it is a painting, printing, and collage class.<\/p>\n

Today was about creating six cotton duck fabric bases containing texture and line created with mock French seams, reverse applique, and crude embroidery — meaning large, quick stitches using heavy threads.\u00a0 Thus far the palette is white and black. \u00a0 Color will be introduced later.\u00a0 We also seamed together paper photographs (black and white)\u00a0 to create a collage that later in the week will be incorporated into the work.\u00a0 I love using photographs in collage, do digital collage practically daily,\u00a0 and have been wanting to incorporate more of such work into my textiles.\u00a0 My latest work, Witley Decay 1 and 2, uses my photo imagery.\u00a0 One of my hope is that the class experience pushes me further in that direction – if even by creating a new body of work entirely separate from “quilted” textiles.<\/p>\n

Each day will have a new objective, with each building on the prior.\u00a0 It’s a very intuitive, spontaneous work approach and, again, I’ve no idea what I’ll end up with.\u00a0 My hope is to enjoy the process and artistically grow from the experience.<\/p>\n

On the Apollo front, I found these two links which are fun: Apollo 11 Live TV Coverage – you can watch it as it aired 40 years ago<\/a>.\u00a0 This begs the question: Do you remember viewing it the first time around?\u00a0 I have a recollection of a black\/white TV and “spacemen.” The problem is that I no longer remember if it’s my memory from the first time around or seeing it replayed over the years.\u00a0 The Apollo 11 Lunar Surface Journal<\/a> by Eric M. Jones.\u00a0 The site contains a wealth of links, a one-stop site for nearly all things Apollo 11-related.
