Demolition Series 1

Dinner at Eight Artists presents Beneath the Surface, a special exhibit at the International Quilt Festival in Long Beach, CA  - July 22-25th at the Long Beach Convention Center. Sponsored by Moore's Sewing Centers and Brother International and the Dinner at Eight blog http://dinnerateightartists.blogspot.com/



For the second year in a row,  I was invited to participate in the Dinner at Eight challenge.  This year the theme is "Beneath the Surface" and I decided to interpret this as what goes on during a remodel.  I took lots of photos of the demolition process and have started a series interpreting what I saw. Shockingly (not), I had lots of deconstructed screenprinted pieces that have worked out great for this series.  I've made three smaller pieces, mounted on canvas, and just bought 3 more canvases, 12 x 36 to try a tryptic.

This is wonderful, Karen. Every one I have seen so far is so different one from the other. It should be a very interesting show!

Gorgeous, Karen. It has a wonderful energy -- organized and chaotic at the same time -- much like construction, I guess! Wonderful, congrats!

In UTnice, everyone can buy a lot of coins with very little money. Because UTnice considers everyone, the price of tokens on their website is not high. You don't have to worry about whether the FIFA 22 Coins they provide are safe enough, because many players will continue to return to UTnice to buy again after the first purchase. So, if you need to buy FIFA 22 Coins, UTnice is the best choice!
