I’m happy to announce that my Squirrel and Locust has been accepted into Art Quilts XVII: Integrating a Paradox. The exhibit will run November 2 through January 19, 2013, at the Chandler Center for the Arts in Chandler, AZ. The juror is Adrienne Buffington
Every now and again I find a call for entry where the theme really relates to my artwork. I love the idea of integrating a paradox and combining seemingly disparate ideas and elements, and it is one of the central themes of my Flora and Fauna series.
Here I’ve taken macro images of a squirrel skeleton and used them to print cyanotype images. I’ve combined them with a monoprint of the locust “my” squirrels scamper on, and integrated one of my very favorite bits of vintage embroidery:
Squirrels in love, gamboling about on lily pads, cheer me up every time. What were they thinking? What am I thinking? This is where artwork comes from. I’m so happy to have this great venue to share my work with you all.
Here’s the list of accepted artists. I’ve added website links where I could find them. There is a LOT of talent in this group of artists, and I predict it’s going to be an amazing show.

Perfect! I am so disappointed. It is the first time I have missed this show in so long. The only piece I had that seemed a fit was the one you chose for I'm Not Crazy! Oh, well. There is always next year.
Sue,
We just hung the art quilts today for INTEGRATING A PARADOX. Yours is one of my very favorites, and it is front and center!

Adriene,
Well that certainly made my day! Thanks very much for choosing my work as part of this exhibit. I wish I could be there for the opening activities. It's sure to be a fabulous show.
