The Weight of Solid Color

1

Every block earns its space

No pattern distracts from the raw encounter between two colors meeting at a seam.

2

Borders are the architecture

A three-inch black frame transforms a quilt from domestic blanket to public monument.

3

Symmetry carries meaning

Centered compositions echo the balance of meetinghouses and barns — not a single figurative mark.

4

Color is the only language

Without ornament, each hue must speak for itself — and does, in full voice across the field.
