Invitation to Worship
Oil, July 2005
24" x 18"

 
     
 

Mary Jane Keys

From the Office of Morning Prayer: I was glad when they said unto me, "We will go into the house of the Lord." Psalm 122:1; "O send out thy light and thy truth, that they may lead me, and bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy dwelling." Psalm 43:3 This painting is my interpretation of a photo I took in the doorway of Saint Paul's Anglican Church in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, last summer. I found a great deal of peace in that worship space.

 


My main interest is surface design on fabric. I am a batik and rozome artist as well as silk painter, quilter, and dyer. I create wall pieces and some wearables. I have also done ecclesiastical pieces. I work with Procion MX, H, and acid dyes as well as Createx pigments. I also incorporate machine embroidery and beading into some of my pieces. My inspiration usually begins with a photo I have taken. I work in colored pencil and oil paints as well.
