Jeanne Williamson: Artist, Author, Curator.

Jeanne Williamson is an accomplished artist and author based outside of Boston. Her art typically takes the form of quilts: detailed fabric works with complex layers which are both stitched and printed and/or stamped, with results that are abstract, idiosyncratic, tactile, and even spatial. Architectural, even. [Disclaimer: I may be slightly biased, since I was lucky enough to have Jeanne as a neighbor for the better part of three decades while I lived at home.] Nevertheless, her work is fantastic, and I must emphasize: pleasantly unique.

Jeanne is currently involved in an exhibit at the Danforth Museum in Framingham, MA entitled, "Mixed Media Fiber Art." She also has a piece in the exhibit, which opened yesterday and runs until March 1st. Mrs. Williamson will be speaking as Guest Curator at 4 PM on Saturday, February 7, with a reception following from 5PM - 7 PM. I highly recommend checking it out.
