Barbara Harms Fiber Art & More

Barbara Harms-Up Close and Personal I'm a fiber quilt artist, working in mixed media. I come from an “arty” family. I inherited the family “arty gene” & have been involved with art my whole life, painting most of it. I had despised in my early teens to be a serious painter. I joined the Las Vegas Artist's Guild, their youngest member at the time. I was totally out of my league, a teen, in a room of adults. I tried to avoid being noticed, a kid in a room of adult artists, I’m pretty sure they noticed. Being exposed to all those serious artists, was a great experience. So, there you have it, the "glorious" beginnings of my artistic "career"! I've continued to paint for most of my life. I was introduced to quilting after moving to Oregon and instantly fell in love it. It was new and exciting, I jumped in with both feet. As enjoyable as I found quilting, I began to miss the creative freedom painting affords. Then, I discovered fiber art quilting, I was finally home. My Process & Approach For me, it's the process of creating that holds the strongest attraction. I love starting with a tiny seed of an idea; vague and blurred around the edges, then I follow where it leads. My style is fairly loose and instinctual. The choices and decisions that come up as I work on a piece, are made based on my gut feelings. This can result in quite a few changes in direction. This approach can lead to many changes in the direction. The outcome can come as a surprise. I love that element of surprise. Sometimes everything just comes together & I think that this is one of my better ones. I can’t wait to show someone. I feel like a six year old, running home from school, a drawing in hand, can't wait to show Mom. At those times I'm smiling like the Cheshire cat.
