Title

Fun clothing I made during "Lock down"

Description

As a professor and artist, shut in my home and away from my campus studio, I've been making projects at home. The works in the power point I've attached have been a mix of formal "creative activity" (per my contract) and stress release. They represent about 75% of the dresses, tops, and jackets, I've made during mid-March through early May, after UWP and Wisconsin went into "lock down". While they are a continuation of clothing I've been making over the past year from fabric I've designed, I spent an extra amount of time during the last half of spring 2020 semester as a way to "chill" and find fun during this crazy time. I can't wait to wear them when we're allowed back on campus to teach!
