Ann Brauer

Growing up on a farm, I have a firm sense of the importance of place and being. I am constantly inspired by the landscapes of western Massachusetts where I live and memories of the prairies of the Midwest where I grew up. The creation of a perceived color and the wide variety of colors that are incorporated within this color creates the feeling. I use simple blocks in a variety of patterns to further the image. The intensity of the labor required to make these quilts, the repetition of the blocks and the wide variety of fabrics required to achieve these colors incorporates the memories of process and the importance of human effort.

For the last twenty seven years I have been supporting myself making quilts. I am currently working on a series of wall hangings for the new Federal District Courthouse in Springfield, Massachusetts.
