My..Where has the time gone? I am seriously going to turn this blog into The Art of Why. I spend all day long thinking about why people are doing the things that they do. My world is evolved with fiber and two dimensional art. Color takes up just about all of my thoughts. Why do some work and some do not? My obsession with hating pink is ending because I am thinking about it and working some new pieces in PINK. Who'da thunk it? I just bought 500 Art Quilts. This book has an editor who thought that she could publish this many art pieces and have a good collection. I think that she could have slimmed it down to 100 Art Quilts and made a better publication. There are some really mediocre pieces in the book. Many of the quilts have bad design, not enough color contrast, and just are not thought out. The funny thing is that most are from art quilters that have made it into big shows. Just making it into this book is a big deal. I just wish that more thought and experience had gone into the selection. I mean, "What the hell?" So..this is my WHY thought today.
