tonight i finally made it up to the Museum of Arts and Design for the show Pricked: Extreme Embroidery. i found the show incredibly inspiring... especially these three artists' work:
maira kalman, whose lovely embroidered pieces i had seen online but never in person...
andrea dezso, who i just figured out i once knew when i had my shop! her mini samplers of her mother's imaginative warnings transfixed both me and george...
...and orly cogan, who stitches poetically innocent yet pornographic fantastical images onto vintage tablecloths and bedspreads.

Wow, this embroidery is amazing - I wish I'd seen it in person!! :)
Hi Cal! Thanks for displaying my work. Adam and I were wondering last week where you might be. Is that cute doggie on the site Gertie?
Send me an email maybe we can get together grab coffee one day and chat. You can send me email from www.andreadezso.com or on Facebook
Warmly,
Andi Dezsö
