Hope by Ron Warford, 40' x 30 " Graphite on Black Board, Framed
Mr. Warford's work was selected by the Smithsonian Institution for a national traveling exhibition in 1973. He was one of the initial founding and teaching members at the Folk Art Gallery in Syracuse. His work spings from his imagination and is masterfully executed. Tel (315) 391-5115 for more info or to purchase. One of the presidents of a local art guild referred to Ron's work as "master works" for their power and quality.
Strength , by Ron Warford. 20 " X 30"
Home is Where the Hearth Is by Jaws. This piece took 600 hours. Amazingly, to produce this the artist had to put the snowflakes in first on a white fine piece of paper and then build everything around it. Think about it - this amazing work, and other pieces of the artists work can be seen at CNY Artists Gallery, which purchased this piece in 2013.

I just have too much stash and way too many ideas...So I have deceided to start using it all up with all those ideas...and hopefully what I come up with will add to that bank account. Of course me being the fabric artist...my stash is mostly fabrics...I want to make small items because I am currently working in a small space...makes sense to me..so , I have taken fabrics, cut them into 2 & 4" squares, put batting inside, stitched, painted and embellish them..They are ready for whatever…

In doing my "very first" blog I totally forgot to tell the world that I do in fact, have my own website....I designed it and built it myself...I must say, that my not being a swift computer person, I do have a feeling of pride...It is www.myfabricart.com It shows only a tiny portion of my stash of fabric pieces and what I do...It has none of my watercolors on it or any of my serigraphs...I do need to get myself organized and update it with a new look…
