This tiny quilt (32” x 48”) is officially my favorite thing I ever made 😊 It incorporates my love of scraps & color theory in a way that feels very ME. It was a very challenging puzzle I enjoyed. I will pursue this technique further! #QuiltSky
A small quilt in the double four patch pattern which is constructed of smaller squares and larger squares arranged in patterns of dark and light so as to create diagonal stripes in small dark fabrics from top left to bottom right, and the same but in light fabrics from top right to bottom left. The light squares are various cream colored prints while the darker prints smoothly flow from teals and aquas at the top through browns, pinks, and purples toward the bottom

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:
ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.
Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

The 3-day nor’easter flattened my marigolds but it’s very pretty out there this morning 🌱
A very pretty peachy dawn seen though a green side yard of a red house.

These chairs in the Leonard Joel auction catalogue this week look like they were drawn by Saul Steinberg, or Jean-Jaques Sempé, or Louis Bemelmans, who did the Madeleine books ... #cartoon #chairs
Some very curly French-y wrought iron black chairs against a grey background, that look like they were drawn by a cartoonist.

Write the book you would like to see someone pull from a higgledy piggledy pile in a secondhand shop 63 years after your death and say, "This looks fucking weird. I think I will buy it for Joan."

Sometimes while I paint I listen to artists pontificating on the rewards and perils of the creative life. Then other times I listen to Behind The Bastards. So anyway, here's this.

A fuchsia pink and brown abstract painting on the left, and in a gray box on the right: DON'T BE HENRY KISSINGER and other new paintings
It's a screenshot from my website, secret lentil.

Went back to the Humber River waterfall near Old Mill again to watch the salmon run and had way more luck this time. So did ONE mighty salmon who finally made it up! 🙌 This fish about to get even more lucky. 😉
