When you are a quilter…
….everything looks like a quilt.
This wall sculpture started in a class with Nick Agar (turningintoart.com) at Craft Supplies in Provo, Utah.
I was frustrated by the scale of the original turning. Most of my surface design methods were too detailed in the early stages. It turns out that I don’t have a good sense of what the carvers call ‘modelling’ for 3D effects on a 2D surface. So the only solution for me was to divide, and divide again, until the scale of the work seemed right.
Nine-patch is a common way that quilters divide space.
