Lisa: Challenge Quilt

Artist’s statement:

Blue is my favorite color, but I couldn’t tell why. I suppose it speaks to me, maybe because I love winter and the light this season bring with it. The original painting by Gabriele Münter “Haus in Wintersonne” (1909) is typical scenery in the village of Murnau in the Bavarian Alps. Gabriele was Wassily Kandinsky’s girlfriend, and together with several other well-known artists, core members of the artist’s movement “Der Blaue Reiter”.

The challenge was to take a painting and to NOT replicate the painting, instead use the color palette only.

Lisa mentioned that the quilting lines reminded her of skiing.
