Barbara Hazard: "Solo Exhibit of Quilts" Artist Reception

 Over the past four years Barbara has shifted her focus from painting and graphics to quilting. She notes that this transition is infinitely refreshing and challenging. Quilt-making has renewed her interest in abstraction. Her excitement with textiles is reminiscent of her first creative endeavors that began in the 1960s. She notes, " it allows me to play with color and form at a slower, more deliberate pace, and to relish embellishment and texture."  Included in this exhibit are a richly colored selection of hand designed needlepointed pillows. Exhibit runs from Nov. 1 -31.
