Denise makes art quilts of megalithic stones and monoliths, and more recent (but still centuries old) monastic ruins. Drawing on what is now a portfolio of sixty plus "stone portraits", Denise will discuss her development of both a recognizable style and self-identifying "story", and her evolving adoption and use (and "tweaking") of select art quilt composition and construction techniques (including fabric painting) and “best practices”.
Topics also include:
– telling the stones’ stories through her art
– how she constructs her stone structures and landscapes
– her management and control of color, texture, and dimensionality
– her struggles relative to perspective, depth, and shadowing
– the critical role of craftsmanship and art fundamentals in creative expression
