Morton Grove, IL USA
Width: 8.75" Length: 11.5"
Materials/Techniques: Hand dyed fabric; machine quilted, hand quilted, hand embroidered.
Artist's Statement: People with Alzheimer's seem to stare out into space for hours at a time. My father in law will sit for hours and watch the change of colors and light on the mountains in Colorado. It seems to bring him peace. He loves to talk about it and he is so happy when showing us what he sees. I share his view with you.
