Sometimes when your in the middle of a lull you just need to reorganize your books, sweep the floor and go find some art to look at. That's just what I did today. It is easy to get so caught up in what you can sell, what you can make to please others, what would impress, that you forget that this is supposed to be fun. So today I packed up the kids and headed off to the Phoenix Art Museum. This is what I saw and fell in love with, Oscar Bluemner's "Jersey Silkmills" 1911. The picture does not do it justice but I instantly thought quilt with all the geometric shapes and bright colors. This might not be something to be dove into but its definately something to pin up to the wall to think on and ponder. Happy creating everyone.
