Artist Commentary

Label

"My quilt was inspired by Tibetan sand mandalas. It is my present to all the people who have kindly assisted me on the various scenes. I think, in quilting, colors, combination and design are indeed profound and they are measures of my self-expression or expression of ones sense of beauty."
