Debra Goley, multi media artist, My process involves putting down multiple layers of medium, pausing after each layer to strategize over the next color mix and brushstroke. I usually have a recent place in mind or a quote I have read that seeks to be captured in the creative expressive movement in my work. I fall into a purposeful path of discovery: switchbacks, places of rest, milestones and the ultimate visual ending. The fun occurs in unearthing it all, or parts of it all, in a way that surprises me. The rest is history and the end result is wherever you end up. Digging for clues and knee-deep in paint… --Debra Goley

Fun fact: Arizona is home to more certified Dark Sky Places than anywhere else in the world. No country outside the U.S. can rival the state's 16 dark-sky communities, places and parks. Now what do I title this one? It’s about AZ dark skies cities. We have cacti, ocotillo in foreground and my hands reaching for the stars. Time to pull threads to back and bind. This art quilt to exhibit with an artist group I joined in 2020. 4commoncorners.com to see all the work we’ve completed thus far. First exhibit coming up in March in Surprise Az! https://www.instagram.com/p/CJhu0VHlzWQ/?igshid=17s7yjdxwsrvk

And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger.And when they saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child.And all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them.But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart.And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them. Luke 2:16-20 Created by my student Madison in my art class this week. I love sharing the story through art. #adaptiveart #artlessonsforchildren (at Goodyear, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJLz2Gsl4gT/?igshid=1kv0fiaewv98x

Thank you all who came out to my artist opening! I am happy to have been asked to exhibit a collection of my body of work, out of quarantine, and for your viewing joy. Many of you asked how long it takes, do I use hand stitching, and what inspires me? Glad to share. Let me know when you’re going and I’ll join you! Exhibit open through November 13 at Arts HQ, Surprise AZ. #artshq #surpriseaz #westvalleyaz #westvalleyarts #westvalleyartscouncil #westvalleyartist #debragoleyart #debragoley #fiber #fiberart #fiberartist #bodyofwork #fibercollection #reverseapplique #abstract_art #abstractart #abstractfiber (at Arts HQ Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGcn2VXF6wO/?igshid=9llkmhbqe5l7
