Tonight's Special

A get together with friends (of the arts persuasion) had us marveling at Katherine's bottle of wine. It was her poster painted for the Lilac Festival, made into a wine label, that made this cool. She's special, too, but we already knew that.

Fabric Not

One more close up from the encaustic work of Katherine Bevier. I couldn't resist the layers, the overlay of color, and the motifs. When I head to the studio, I'll take a lesson from her work, and translate with thickened dye. Fabric, yes.

Q: When is a Quilt Not a Quilt?

A: When it is work made by Katherine Bevier, whose work in encaustic certainly mimics the improvisational piecing of patchwork, and at times references the medium through titles and imagery, but is all together a different (and exciting) animal. Her show at the Legacy Tower ends tomorrow.
