Many of my quilts are composed of tiny scraps sewn together into pieces that become parts of my quilts.
Following patterns with intricate planned intersections and making multiple blocks the same
doesn’t appeal to me. I refer to my methods as “seat of the pants” quilting.

Throughout the years I have made observations and extensive studies about things which repeatedly capture my attention and provide inspiration. ‘Nature!' - Trees, Water, Frost, Rain, Light, Wind and Rock in their infinite variety of forms and manifestations whether great or small, at times visible, often hidden, silent or audible, underground or disguised, but always in transition. Things we see in part or not at all which exert tremendous far reaching effects on our planet.

Katharine Kreisher lives between Truth or Consequences and Oneonta, NY, where she is Professor of Art, Department of Art and Art History. Her Resumé is long, varied and filled with installations such as those
pictured here. She includes family heirloom textiles, some are reworked in other installations.
Here is her quote from the HEATE'S DREAM installation: "Hekate’s Dream” is part of my on-going series of
“Dream” installations, journeys into unconscious narratives, reworkings of memory and myth. This colorfully
crocheted and knit installation is built from funnel-like shapes referencing desert plant forms and flowers.
To me it is as if the archaic domestic goddess of ancient Greece, Hekate, dreamed of a desert landscape where
distorted plants give way to surprising blooms, funnels deliver water and disrupting whirlwinds come and go.
Working with yarn and thread and cloth to “find” the imagery, I imagined myself at all ages
in half-remembered rooms conversing with my mother and aunts and grandmothers while quilts
and sweaters and socks emerged under our fingertips.

Communication & Barriers To Communication
Untold war stories, secret information, suppressed feelings and fears,
the subtle limits to all communication that military training demands of young soldiers,
the heritage of silence that damages the emotional life of veterans and their families.

After spinning my first skein of yarn, I was hooked. After weaving my first basket, I was hooked. I find it rewarding and
even exciting to create something from nothing, especially an item that's functional and can last for generations.

Goddess of the Sky. 14x14x2" Hardware, sequins on metal.
Artist’s Statement: “… I have been doing art for over forty years. I originally worked as an abstract landscape painter before transitioning to creating mixed media shrines and assemblages. I’m fortunate to have had residencies at the Vermont art Center and the Wurlitzer Foundation in Taos. I primarily work with metal, hardware and iconic images, using objects from scrapyards, thrift stores, and the desert - “Trashformation”- beauty from trash! Themes range from the sacred to the humorous, often with a sense of mystery. I am especially inspired by the art of Mexico and Outsider artists. I work intuitively and learn by experimenting, informed by the process of creating each piece."
Masaoka has exhibited in Carmel, CA, Vermont, and Asheville, NC as well as Truth or Consequences, NM.

Monroe works with mainly found
materials in an eclectic variety of categories, primarily but not exclusively fabric hangings, totem figures, assemblages, collages and altered books. She explains, “My hunting skills have been honed to a fine art while pawing through second-hand clothing, fabrics, beads, yarns, rusted metal, and fanciful objects found at local thrift stores, yard sales and on many rambles on desert trails. This kind of reuse and upcycling gives me fits of pleasure and excitement.” An early influence was Kaffe Fassett and his colorful work in fabric, knitting, needlepoint, patchwork, painting and mosaic. |

During our pandemic I am working on a series that takes me far away from thinking about it.
BLOOMS. I have just updated my website with this new category. Working toward a 2021 exhibit.
So far so good and they do make me smile inside. Take a look. Enjoy them.
