JUDITH RODERICK
I touched upon the Batik process,
wax resist on cotton, while a
Painting and Design major at
Carnegie Tech in the 1960's, and
that FIBER THREAD has run
throughout my life. I batiked for
decades, creating wall hangings,
clothing and quilts. Since 1982 I
have been painting on Silk, which I
still enjoy. The cloth still calls, the
dye on the silk is still a familiar
and magical form of expression.
My focus is always on Nature, birds
and other creatures out my
windows, the Iris, the Cranes, the
beauty and diversity of the Natural
world.
I have made quilts on and off since my 20's, first traditional pieced
quilts, then quilts from my children's drawings, batiked quilts, and then
silk-painted quilts. They are very satisfying for me now, a way to take
my silk painted images to another level. I paint the silk in the summers,
and the making of the quilts is a perfect winter activity, slow, complex,
and very meditative.
