The idea for this show came to me in the last days of my sister Meg's life. We had the very good fortune to have the support of a wonderful Doctor Khan at Providence St Peter Hospital in Olympia, Washington.  He and Meg met before I was able to get out to Olympia, and they loved each other right away. One day when Dr. Khan came to visit he asked Meg about her art.  Meg told him that when she was young she had done a lot of large paintings and collages, and that later on she had developed her fabric jewelry, and had continued making that for 30 years.  "Everything I learned in making the big paintings is what I continued doing in the jewelry."

I wondered, what did Meg mean by that?  I don't know! But the question has stayed with me, and I hope you will come to this show, experience the vast library of Meg's jewelry designs along with some early larger work,  and help me ponder that question.  I hope you'll join us in celebrating Meg's life in fabric, love and laughter.   Love, Kathleen

At this show we'll have a chance for folks to sit at tables and touch and marvel over the slices and "end bits" from the vast library of designs that Meg made during nearly 30 years. There will be early paintings of Meg's as well as a large number of monoprints.  And we'll show a few slides of some beautiful paintings that Meg had documented for shows, before selling the pieces long ago.   

There will also be mono prints, paintings, and Fabric Jewels for sale, as well as prototype giclee prints of three of my favorite painting/collages of Meg's, Island Flight, Inner Strength and Wide Open Grace,  which can be ordered and mailed to you. 

I invite you to  join us at the opening on  the evening of April 17th. I hope we'll have my brothers and their families and some of Meg's friends with us,  and we'll share  memories of Meg, read a story from Meg's unpublished memoir, and sing some songs with everyone.   (
The memorial part of the evening will be from 8-9, and the entire evening goes from 7-10.)

We'll also be open for visitors on Saturday, April 18th, from 1-5 pm.  And from then until May 3rd I will be available to meet people  by appointment.  Other events during that time will be announced along the way. Please let me know if you'd like to be on the email list for the show and events.
