<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 1.4;">I'm thankful that I keep doing my art work.

I'm trying out meditation to help me see images about; energy, connections, relationships and the many layers of meaning that can be applied to everything. "The Space In-Between" was inspired by several things. First the concept of energy, space and time. Second, my love of trees and a need for quiet and beauty to reboot the joo-joo. <a href="https://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/1469">The Matisse Cut out show at MoMA</a>. Matisse worked on those cut outs from his sick bed. He was driven to keep making art. His cut-outs are simple, strong, beautiful and very inspiring. Another inspiration are the vibrant patterns of </span></span></span><a href="https://www.artsy.net/artist/yayoi-kusama" style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 18px;">Yayoi Kusama.</a><br />

<div style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.4;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">My friend Pricilla Lamb and I are each doing a drawing a day for the month of August. Each day we make a drawing and then post it on Face Book for the other to see and comment on. Some of our friends are commenting too. The hardest part for me has been committing the time to the project and then figuring out what I want to draw that day. Each day I'm excited to see what Priscilla is going to do and say. It's fun to have a buddy in this little drawing adventure.</span></div>

I made a 2012 New Years resolution to do more portraits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">This project was for a workshop at the Met's new Uris Center. One week-end (Th-Sun) in September I spent 33 hours in the studio measuring, cutting and sewing. Thankfully, Shelly and Anna helped so I wasn't alone. I had estimated that I could knock this project out in one afternoon. Boy, was I wrong! Faith said that, under estimation is a psychological tactic. When you employ this tactic you convince yourself that the upcoming project is not really so big or so bad, that it will not take much time and that in fact it's a piece of cake. This method of trickery helps you to tackle the biggest of projects and makes the project less daunting and more manageable. Try it yourself </span>!</span></div>

The Day of the Dead boxes are an homage to people that I have a deep admiration for. The new Day of the Dead boxes are dedicated to; Ray Charles, Coretta and Martin Luther King, James Brown, Georgia O'Keefe, and Zora Neal Hurston. I've made some boxes that are simply a celebration of texture and another is celebration of Spring. See them all on-line and at the LaJolla Atenaeum on September 19,2008.

Whenever I "hit a wall", I spend an hour cranking out embellishments. Most itmes, I'll have my concentration back before the hour is even over.<br />

<br />
When I'm uncertain of direction, I clean up the studio. Just sorting and handling materials generally leads to new sketches.<br />

Dale Chihuly finds inspiration in water. He lives in Washington state and walks in the rain. He also soaks in the bath.<br />

Faith Ringgold taught me this tip. When you have a project that is overwhelming in scope convince yourself that the project is not really soooooo big, it's definatley not to big for you to handle and you can finish it in a short amount of time.<br />

<br />
I sit in my studio not expecting to accomplish anything. I just look and relax. It is important to be in my studio each day or when I can. If I see a motif that I would like to draw, I draw it right away before it gets cold and looses it's power.<br />
I just start drawing or painting to make marks. When I get stuck I start another. Eventually one of the images takes on more meaning for me.<br />

<br />
I have a ritual to get 2 working. Enter studio with coffee, lots of bags & my dog Lita. Read paper. Make a list or review list. Write in journal. Walk around work area.I'm in. I usually have several projects going at one time so I'm never at a loss of what 2 do.<br />

<br />
I go to the studio with or without a plan and I have several projects going at one time. Some of the projects can be done when the light has gone and some that don't require math or a lot of concentration.<br />
I make lists of projects that I want to do for the year.<br />

One afternoon I was in my upstairs loft on Commercial St. I heard a loud yelping noise that was so piercing I though something had been hit on the street outside. I ran down to see what had happened. It was a little black pup, about 3 months old, trying to resist as she was being pulled by a chain wrapped around her neck. Her paws were out front desperately trying to stop. But the woman dragging her was in a drunken stumble and unwilling to stop. I quickly made my way to her and asked her if I could pet her puppy. She wobbled a bit and then stopped and said, "Yeah, I guess. Life's a bitch, though. I had to learn and she'll have to learn some time too." She stopped.<br />
<br />
The lady looked very worn and vacant; tired. I imagined she was treating the puppy much like she had been treated in her life. I bent down to pet the puppy and when I did the puppy immediately came to me and tried to hide under my legs as I was crouched on the sidewalk. The fear in her eyes, the strained, furrowed brow made my whole body tense and ready to rescue. Then, my heart really began to pound as I noticed the chain was not a leash, connected to a collar, but rather a hook latched to a link on the chain. There was no give and it was tight around her neck, chocking her as she was being pulled.<br />
<br />
In short, after some negotiation, a trip to the ATM and will to “make a run for it with the pup if things didn’t go well,” the woman finally staggered off with, conceding to a $27 trade. I watched the woman go, with the puppy in my arms. She was pressed into me as if to say, “please don’t let me go.” So, I didn’t. We walked to the curb and sat down. After about 10 minutes I said, “Well, guess it’s you and me, now,” and we were off to the vet!<br />
<br />
Ella ended up having some health concerns but eventually grew to be a happy, healthy, loving, snuggler. Some years later I found where she had come from. Most of her litter had died of Parvo. While walking Ella one day, I even ran into the woman I had rescued her from. She was sober and asked if I was the girl who bought a black puppy from her. I said yes and she responded, “I wasn’t in much of a position to take care of her at the time. I’m glad to know she went to a good home.”<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">One afternoon Birdie came home from work. He lived in a big 14th floor apartment with his wife, Faith and their two daughters. When Birdie walked in the door Faith asked him to take care of their bird, Dinah. Dinah, a parakeet had been recently diagnosed with a cold. The doctor prescribed a very complex regiment of medications. The treatment included pills to crush, drops to be put in Dinah’s water and drops to be administered directly to the sick little bird. Birdie said, Faith, I’m tired can I just sit down for a minute?” So he took off his coat, walked over to look at the patient, opened her cage door, opened the window and sat down to rest. Freedom called Dinah so she made a break for it and flew out the open window.</div></div><br />

Baby Faith had a little goldfish that lived in a glass fishbowl. It was Saturday morning and time to clean the bowl so Faith took the fishbowl into the bathroom to take care of her fish. Faith’s big brother Andrew was there to help, her scooped up the goldfish to move it to a little cup while they cleaned it’s bowl. When Andrew dropped the little fish into the cup she jumped out and flipped and slithered around on the slippery tile floor until she was under the claw-foot tub. Andrew thought the whole thing was very funny but baby Faith screamed and cried because the little fish was out of reach.<br />

On parent’s visitation day the campers showed off the camp. Barbara and Michele took their mom, Faith to see the camp’s lake, the lodge and the cabin where they slept. Faith looked all around the cabin. It was filled with bunk beds, a few chairs and shelves for the camper’s clothes, books and essentials. Faith asked the girls, where is Mr. Smilie?

Her paws scratched up and down on the inside of the car window; it must have looked like she was waving to others as we passed by.I especially enjoyed her barking at the statues of lambs in the front of a church. Guess they looked like dogs out and about to her. It always made me laugh.</span></div><br />

<div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Okay, here is one of the famous JC and Cow story. I was two and one of the cows from a neighboring farm wondered onto our farm. I was playing in the mud, this was my favorite past time, and a cow walked up behind me, mooed and I crapped my diaper. The family thinks this is very funny, I think it is a normal reaction from a two year old.</span></div></div><div><br />

With two cats at home already Joelle’s husband, Jonathan, thought they had enough cats and that a two cat limit was a very good limit. So Joelle found a nice home for the stray tabby. But the cat came back. Joelle found another home for the stray kitty but the cat came back again. Joelle made a third attempt to send the cat now called Damian to live with a sweet old couple but the cat came back the very next day. The cat came back they thought he was gone but he kept coming back. Damian was meant to be with Jonathan and Joelle and it would be no other way.</span></div><br />

Damian opens cabinets and doors. He opens Jonathans bedroom door at night, climbs up on a dresser then jumps onto Jonathan’s chest. Jonathan used to like to work at his computer late at night wearing only his bathrobe until Damian took a swat at his dangly bits. Joelle said she’s never heard a scream like that one ever before</span>. </div></div><div><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">We are thankful to have the opportunity to add our voices to promote awareness of the circumstances that the sub-Saharan African orphaned children are experiencing. The title of our piece is taken from Greek mythology. Cassandra was the child of King Priam of Troy. Cassandra has the power to predict the future and the curse that no one believes her. She can predict disasters such as the Trojan horse. In our work Cassandra’s power is again an insistence to take notice of the situation and the need to help the children now and this time we believe.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">We take care to infuse love into our cradle, to build in the comfort of an infants cradle. The cradle must rock to sooth and reassure. The sides are created from old clothing woven into the cradle’s sides to emphasizes that no baby can fall through the cracks. The soft pillows are made from Mom’s sweet old pajamas and stuffed with recycled bubble wrap.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">The recycled elements are a metaphor for the 48 million children whose first lives included parents and now their new lives do not. Yet the potential for their lives to be safe, happy, beautiful and supported does exist. If there is enough potential in pieces of scrap to make a structure which cradles a child, then the possibility of a bright future also exit for the orphans of sub-Saharan Africa.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">The children need our assistance! Cassandra represents one of 1000 efforts to contribute to the Cradle Project. Believe Cassandra's prophesy and help the children now.</span></span></div>

Photo is glued to a cardboard oval, then glued to fabric that will cover the head. An armature is created from aluminum foil. Fabric strips are wrapped repeatedly over the foil until the armature has been strengthened and the sculpture has taken shape. String or yarn is wrapped over the fabric strips providing additional strength and fixes the loose ends of the fabric. The final step is to add the hair, clothing and adornments using buttons, beads, yarn and costume jewelry.<br />

The face should fit into a 2” high x 1.75” wide inch oval. Collect fabric donations. The fabric can come from old clothing, linens and leftover yardage. You will need about 1.5 yards of fabric per doll. The fabric should be cut into strips about 1 to 2 inches wide and as long as possible. Collect discarded costume jewelry, string, yarn, thread, cord, buttons, zippers, snaps and beads to add details to the sculpture. Beauty is in the details.</span></span></div>

As a painter Matthew’s pallet is saturated with bright color and pattern reminiscent of pop art. Her visual content is grounded in the personal and emotional experiences of daily life.<br /><br />Grace Matthews graduated cum laude from the <a href="http://visarts.ucsd.edu/about/general/" target="_blank">University of California, San Diego</a> in 1994, with a Bachelor of Arts Degree. While studying at UCSD, Matthews began to work for her mentor, internationally known artist <a href="http://www.faithringgold.com/" target="_blank">Faith Ringgold</a>. As Ms. Ringgold’s Artist Assistant, Matthews is responsible for administrative tasks, research and studio work.<br /><br />Currently Matthews shares a <a href="http://art-studio-events.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">studio</a> with two local artists in San Diego and is a member of the <a href="http://www.nawanet.org/" target="_blank">National Association of Women Artists</a>, <a href="http://www.sdwca.org/new/gallery.htm/" target="_blank">WCA</a> and holds the position of VP for <a href="http://www.anyonecanflyfoundation.org/" target="_blank">Anyone Can Fly foundation</a>, a non-profit organization focused on impacting history by including Masters of the African Diaspora into the art establishment canon.<br /><br /><br />Resume<br />Education<br />BA 1994 University of California, San Diego (cum laude)<br /><br />Grants/Awards<br />2005 Anyone Can Fly Foundation Print scholarship<br /><br />Solo Exhibitions<br />2005 Grace Matthews: Quilt & Boxes,<br />Borelli Space San Diego, CA<br /><br />2008 Grace Matthews: Boxes<br />La Jolla Athenaeum Music and Arts Library, La Jolla, Ca<br />Sept 20-Nov 8, 2008<br /><br />Group Exhibitions<br />July 3, 2009<br />Create an American Dream Quilt<br />Children’s Museum of Manhattan, NYC<br /><br />June 30- September 14, 2008<br />Voices in Cloth: Story Quilts<br />Queens Library Gallery<br />Jamaica, NY 11432<br /><br />September 19 - November 8, 2008<br />Boxes<br />The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library<br />La Jolla, CA 92037<br /><br />October 14, 2008<br />Anyone Can Fly Foundation Annual Exhibition/auction “Passion”<br />ACA Gallery<br />New York, NY<br /><br />March 2008<br />The Cradle Project<br />New Mexico Community Foundation<br />Albuquerque, NM<br /><br />September 3 - 26, 2007<br />Ancestors Project: A collaboration with Faith Ringgold, Grace Matthews and Linda Freeman<br />“National Association of Women Artists”<br />New York, NY 10011<br /><br />September 14 - November 4, 2007<br />“Voices in Cloth”<br />Stephen F.

We would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to Christian Cutler and the Steven F Austin Museum for hosting the Voices in Cloth exhibition. We wish we could be there with you all but we are so glad that you have come out to se the show.<br />
<br />
The Voices exhibition is unique in that we three artists are friends, we all make quilts and we are always finding inspiration in one another to do the work we love. Linda and Grace have been inspired by Faith Ringgold to express themselves in the quilt medium. The quilt is a wonderful context rich in connections to femininity, family history and comfort. Most of all we hope that you enjoy the show and find the inspiration to do more of what you love.<br />
