On November 4 and 5 from 11AM to 5PM everyone is invited to come by to see my new studio in Santa Rosa, CA, at 3840 Finley Ave., Building 32, Studio 107. I will have some hand papermaking activities going on, and you can join in if you want or just see the new space and some of my work on display. This weekend is the annual Open Studios for the Studio Santa Rosa, and many other art studios in the building will be open to the public. Hope to see you!

Here are some photos of some of my handmade paper artworks on display inside my space (#107) and outside in the hallway.

“Living Quilt” has a bud on October 16, 2017

Jane Ingram Allen’s “Living Quilt for Newnan” is starting to bloom. This photo was sent yesterday by Newnan Art Rez board member Bette Hickman showing a wildflower plant with a small bud. It is exciting to see the growth of the quilt, and hopefully some blooms will be happening soon. This installation was installed on August 31 in Newnan, Georgia, at a park near the intersection of College and Temple Avenues in downtown Newnan, next to the Children’s Museum that is at the site of the historic Male Academy in Newnan.

Jane created this art installation during her August 2017 residency at Newnan Art Rez (www.newnanartist.org). The quilt is made with handmade paper dyed with non-toxic dye and has seeds for wildflowers in the pulp to grow and bloom in the same “house” pattern. The handmade paper dissolves as mulch, and over time the flowers will continue to grow and bloom as a living quilt for the flower bed. The headboard and footboard was created by the artist with local branches and vines. Here is a photo of the quilt on the day it was installed.
