Ahead of His Time
Lisa Walton October 22, 2022 Climate Change,Lisa Walton,Musings
My current series of work has been inspired by Antoni Gaudi. When thinking of the current prompt for Cloth in Common of Climate Change I started to research how Gaudi was a forerunner environmentalist and came across some interesting studies. Gaudi was extremely aware of the environment and used recycled

Water for Life
Lisa Walton September 28, 2022 Artists,Heritage,Lisa Walton,Musings,Revealed Quilts
I am digressing from my Gaudi series this time for the prompt of Heritage. I visited a living museum a little while ago called Meroogal and was taken with the simplicity of a home which had been the home of a relatively wealthy family, the Thorburns. This is an image

On The Edge
Lisa Walton July 26, 2022 Flexible,Lisa Walton,Musings,Revealed Quilts
Flexibility can mean many things and in a world where traditional architecture was full of straight lines and rectangles, Antoni Gaudi broke all the rules with his curvaceous organic designs giving his buildings a life of movement and flexibility. This quilt is a section of a mosaic platform at Parc

Flexibility
Lisa Walton June 18, 2022 Artists,Flexible,Lisa Walton,Musings
Somethings are meant to be straight so when you see them curved unnatturally it is often a concern or just clever and make you smile Many things in nature may seem straight but rarely are. I’m looking at ways to take something straight and give it flexibility. Fortunately as I

Honeycomb
Lisa Walton May 29, 2022 Cell,Lisa Walton,Musings,Revealed Quilts
Continuing in my series of quilts inspired by Antoni Gaudí the prompt of CELLS inspired me to do some research into how he developed his organic shapes and designs. My interest was sparked by this clipping of detail of windows in Sagrada Familia which mentions how the window is similar

Organic Architecture
Lisa Walton April 25, 2022 Cell,Lisa Walton,Musings
If you have been following my work in this series you know that I am focussing on the work of Antoni Gaudi and of course he was one of the original proponents of organic architecture. He is best known for his organic and free flowing architecture which is easily identified

Gaudi’s Windows
Lisa Walton March 28, 2022 Light,Lisa Walton,Musings,Revealed Quilts
It was my turn to choose the prompt for this round and I have been saving this idea for such an opportunity. In keeping with my overall theme of Antoni Gaudi I went through my pictures taken on my last trip to Barcelona. It had been a few years since

LIGHT
Lisa Walton February 1, 2022 Lisa Walton,Musings,Prompts
My prompt for the next Cloth in Common challenge is LIGHT. Something so important to all of us Whether is is a single candle flame or natural sunlight streaming through a window or a single glow from a lightbulb to our goals of the light at the end of the

Gaudi’s Columns
Lisa Walton January 28, 2022 Building,Lisa Walton,Revealed Quilts
Keeping with my current theme of inspiration of Antoni Gaudi I was thrilled with the Building Prompt. My only problem was which building to select. Parc Guell is a privatised park system composed of gardens and architectural elements in Barcelona. With urbanisation in mind Eusebi Guell assigned the design to

Skeleton Revealed
Lisa Walton November 28, 2021 Anatomy,Lisa Walton,Revealed Quilts
The prompt of Anatomy should make you think of a living organism but my passion (some would say obsession) continues to explore the work of Antoni Gaudi. I was drawn to the skeleton framework that is the basic structure of any building. What better building to explore than Sagrada Familia,

Framework
Lisa Walton November 10, 2021 Anatomy,Lisa Walton,Musings
There are countless variations of types of skeletons so for the current prompt for Cloth in Common of Anatomy, I was happy to continue my theme of buildings. The skeleton of a building is the framework around which the structures are based and there are many different frames available now

Descent into a Lost World
Lisa Walton September 28, 2021 Lisa Walton,Lost Worlds,Revealed Quilts
Lisa Walton In keeping with my overall theme of Antoni Gaudi, the Lost World prompt made me think of the spiral stairs descending from the bell tower of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. This spiral staircase was designed by Gaudi and looking down into the spiral makes me think about
