Silent Critique - Muses
Feburary 20, 2012
One of the favorite meetings each year, in this meeting we'll run a silent review of all entries into the Muses show (those that made it into the show and those that did not). For those pieces accepted into the show, we will read the juror's critique. This always proves to be a very educational and enlightening meeting.

"Working in a Series, Confessions of a Serial Quilter"
March 19, 2012
Elizabeth Barton explores the beauty of everyday environments. She uses her art to create a sense of memory and time and translates this into fiber with marvelous effects of light and color. Her work includes cityscapes, landscapes and abstracts that incorporate both unified composition and satisfying details. She enjoys working in a series, recently creating a series based on memories. She finds the quilt medium ideal for repetition and serialization.

April 16, 2012
What is it that attracts us to the mediums we choose to express ourselves? Drawing and markmaking are predominant elements in my work, regardless of the medium. I will talk about my background as a printmaker/sculptor and my journey to becoming a textile artist. I will share my creative process, and provide examples of my exploration of translating the principles and process-intensive techniques I’ve used in creating my prints to realizing my new works in fiber.
