June Program: Julia Pfaff-Finding Your Inner Artist

Finding Your Inner Artist by Julia Pfaff

What makes an art quilt? What makes art?  The all important question we should be asking ourselves is what makes good art? Artist, quilter, and educator Julia E. Pfaff will discuss aspects of making art, making art in a quilt format, and observations of the art quilt movement.  She will lend insights into her creative process and discuss how can we edit better and have the confidence to express your own ideas and use fabric in a way your mother would not have approved of.  

With an undergraduate degree in art history and a MFA, Julia has been quilting her entire life and has successfully turned a family tradition into a contemporary art form. She is an educator and studio artist and teaches at both the community and college level. Her quilts have been exhibited extensively and can be found in numerous national collections and publications.
