"Parkway Dawn" Juried into Local Color 4 Opening at the Windsor Art Center

I am honored and excited that "Parkway Dawn" was juried into the  regional SAQA exhibit opening at the Windsor Arts Center on March 21, 2020.

"Parkway Dawn" is an abstract representation of my morning commute on the Merritt Parkway as the the morning replaces the night.

I learned how to indigo dye with resists several years ago in the backyard of Carol R. Eaton. That fabric is the blue with 'headlights'.   The pink-orange stripes are artist-dyed cotton and the silhouetted tree fabric was made by Mickey Lawler's daughter (SkyDyes).
