Publisher Description: My name is Valerie Funk and I'm a professional fiber & quilt artist, graphic designer, photographer, and long-arm quilter. The quilts I create are not the typical quilts you expect to see in laying on the bed in your grandmother's house. What I create are absolutely amazing works of arts that are more likely to be found on the walls of galleries and fine art venues across the United States. This book is a beautiful compilation of many of the art quilts I've created over the years, their stories, inspirations, and why I felt so driven to create them. This 56-page book is filled to brim and exploding with full color images of several of my quilts some of which incorporate a variety of different elements of surface design including hand dyes, oil and acrylic paints, raw edge applique, and other such embellishments.This vibrant anthology includes a large collection of my abstract works, several of my extraordinary landscape and nature themes, military tributes, a few uniquely styled bed quilts, portraits, and wide variety of animals some of which are fun and funky and others that are strikingly captivating. With the recent publication of several of my patterns you may even find something you want to create for yourself. Join me as I share this colorful reflection of my Quilt Artistry career. |
