Thanks for Art 101!

But not for any reasons that you would think of - it meant that I was able to just skip right over huge chunks of the digest, and am now officially reading entries from April! Hurray!

I can artspeak when I need to (good ole RISD education), but I guess Vermont has gotten into my bones; I speak as plainly as possible about my work, as it seems to me that my subconscious needs all the clarity it can get.

Ok, confession time: I have a stuffed lion named Guntar (after Gunther Gable Williams, the lion tamer from Wringling Bros fame) who has a goofy voice and acts as my inner child. He told me this morning that if I can make baby and toddler quilts for half the folks in my address book, then I ought to be able to make one for my own inner child as well. My professional brain thought 'perfect for Art Quilts X', but if that is what I need to do to justify it, then ok. I think Gunny might be onto something here....
