A new SAQA book, Portfolio 19, The Art Quilt Sourcebook, is now available from the SAQA website. It includes a picture of my quilt, Same But Not on the cover (in the upper left corner) and profiles all of the professional members of the studio art quilt associates. A wonderful opportunity to review many beautiful works of art.

light trick, 2012, Paula Kovarik

I am always happy to enter my studio in the morning. There is a big east-facing window that spews light across the surfaces of my tables. This piece was in the direct beam so I grabbed my camera to shoot it. Little did I know that the camera would further distort the image because there was so little light for focus. I love how the shadows on this piece create the illusion of a cliff right under the eyes.

What a nice gift from the universe, especially on a Monday morning.
Thanks for catching it and passing it on.
I love this series- it feels like dispatches from Mars-
and this really captures it's lovely otherness.

I'd like to go to HER hairdresser! ;-)
The color, the design, the light...the phrase 'hair on fire' comes to mind!
