Book Review: The Natural World

Art Quilt Portfolio: The Natural World
Martha Sielman
Sterling Publishing; $24.95
The first in a series, Art Quilt Portfolio: The Natural World showcases art quilts inspired by nature: flowers, water, birds, animals, leaves, insects, trees and texture. More than 450 artists submitted nearly 1,200 works for consideration in this volume. The book includes the work of more than 70 artists, as well as an in-depth look at 19 featured artists and their work in a diversity of techniques. The featured artists offer essays about their creative process. I always find the personal stories offering a glimpse into the artists and their passions fascinating to read. The book is a visual delight and a wonderful read. I look forward to the next book in the series.
