Jill's Displays

I have a silk and art display at the Belmar Library, Lakewood, CO right now; May and June, 2013.  The portrait was taken by Bob Maynard Photography while we were at our Studio Walk, May 4 & 5 in Erie, CO.  There were four artists in one home; we had 60-70 visitors each day with lots of fun, sales and networking.

May the Earth Always Speak to Your Spirit

The title is written down the middle of this 8 x 72" silk.  That gave me a pattern to build into the design.  The border is a stretch alphabet.  I used leaves and colors from nature.  Sold

Butterfly Flight

Another friend suggested that I add the details to the ends of the scarf.  So I put the butterflies on the ends and then drew their flight patterns all over the silks.  The calligraphy on the margins is all about butterflies.  12 x 60"  Sold

Whimsy Woodlands

12 x 60"  This started off as a tangle drawing, but then flowers, woodsy plants and critters also snuck into the drawings.  I have this in a gallery in Boulder, Co right now for May/June 2013. Sold

Simply Color

My friend asked for a silk with no lines or drawing on it.  So I played with this one.  After steaming there was a permanent water spot on it, so I made some little hearts in that area and the silk is finished.  It is fun to wear this one.  SOLD

Another Coral Reef

As you know I love the coral reefs and the ocean.  All my ocean silks are sold, so I made another.  This is 8 x 72" and has lots of details.  There is writing in the border about the ocean.  SOLD

Rainbow colors

8 x 72" silk with small flowers in each color.  I tried sugar on this silk and tried to keep it simple.  $80.00
