New Stuff


Hello All,

For those of you who don't know, I've made it safely to Eugene, Oregon, my new home! I recently read "The Little Prince," and became inspired to make some new art. My friend Simon gave me the book when I left New Paltz, as a going away present. It really helped me to be in a better state of mind when I finished it yesterday. I'm using this drawing as sort of a mock up plan for a future installation/quilt of some kind. Stay tuned, there will be much more soon.

Finished Map






So I finally finished the map of the United States. I figure this is just a prototype of an even bigger one I want to make in the future. The piece was sold to my dearest friend Kevin. I made Hawaii and Alaska as separate pieces, and included a compass on Hawaii.

Finished Landscapes




So I don't think I ever posted these landscapes from my thesis show, the first is Multnomah Falls in Portland, Oregon, the next is of Lake Minnewaska in New Paltz, and the last is of Rte 299 in New Paltz (pumpkin patches).

Map


So the map is going, I finally finished most of the states (with the exception of Deleware, a small gem if you will) and of course Alaska and Hawaii still need to be made as well along with the mountain ranges, rivers, and lakes I will be embroidering with the standard embroidery thread.

U.S.A. is A.O.K





Before I explain anything, I must apologize for how long its been since I've shown anything. Pathetic, I know. Anywho this is a hand sewn map of the United States I am working on ( I didn't forget to include Hawaii and Alaska, they are coming along as well as the others that are left blank). I plan to embroider rivers, symbols for mountains, and a few other surprises.
