September 17 Barbara Yates Beasley Lecture and Video Show
Newtown Quilters’ Guild welcomes Barbara Yates Beasley, “Windows Into The Souls of Animals” https://barbarayatesbeasley.com/ Barbara will present her lecture at our September 17th Guild Meeting. Guests are welcome! ($10.00 guest fee)
“A love for the animal kingdom has always been a guiding principle in Barbara Yates Beasley’s fabric collages. From a wild collection of fabric emerges the personality of her subjects. Many animals sport crazy colors that express their freedom to be themselves, and not just be a part of the pack.
“With her camera always at the ready, Beasley captures images of animals wherever she goes. These later become the basis for her patterns and a roadmap to the animal’s soul. Beasley says, ‘I try to be sensitive to how my subject is feeling and transform that into a piece that tells a story. Exploring how the turn of a head or the look in an eye can communicate volumes between our species.’”
