A Quilt For David Mx

Here is the start of a new quilt. It is for my brother in law David who lives in New York City. I made him a small wallhanging a few years back that he lays at the end of his bed. I decided he needed a real bed quilt.

Here is my inspiration. These are pictures of his building. The blue sky is really beautiful.....and look at all those details.....

My pallette, I did edit this down quite a bit but still have a lot of different fabrics in the quilt.

I drew some shapes that I saw in the building.

Started to sketch....no I am not feeling this.....

I like this one better but still not what I want.....

This is better.....more what I had in mind....

Strips cut and ready to go. I think this is going to be a fun quilt.

Photosculpture With David Meanix

My brother in law David Meanix is a very talented photographer who lives in New York City. He developed a very interesting process called "Photosculpture". This is a video of a commission he did of some one's dog. The process is very involved. He takes hundreds of pictures of his subject and then puts them all back together in a very interesting way.

He is famous too! If you watched the HBO series "Six Feet Under" it was his art work that the character, Claire used in the show. He created photosculptures of the actor's faces.

Sorry I could not figure out how to edit this last photograph so it was right side up!
