velvet hours

a horizontal feeling in a square cloth
dyed and handled - used a lot and this handling is evident
marks, erasures, evidence of time and labour
layers of meaning and dream 

evidence

 

evidence of time and touch
gifted doilies, hand dyed linen front and back

been wanting to do this all summer

"I like the inside to be inside and the outside to be outside"  Gertrude Stein

from earth to stars

And perhaps this is the essential quality of art: to be marks upon the infinite, mediators between our being and the world.

Henry F Skerritt
