Watercolor
and collage. I painted two images of hearts onto heavy morilla board
then I sliced them into strips (one vertical, one horizontal) and then
painstakingly wove them together. I did a series of woven paintings
after a trip to Guatemala in the mid -1980s. Most are gone, sold to
strangers at the annual Art form the Heart art auction fundraiser at
Sonoma State University. I made a color xerox
of this one. so, it's a collograph of a painted collage.
I lined the two woven heart pockets with rabbit fur. There
are candy hearts and ribbons and and even a slender pencil. You never
know what people will buy at the auction... One pieces that I submitted I
thought no one would buy, there were fierce bidding wars on it. Other
pieces that I thought would appeal, no one wanted. This little jezebel was left
behind. I guess whimsical fur lined hearts didn't appeal. January, 1998? or 1988?
