The Edgar Miller Exhibit at the DePaul University Art Museum.
Edgar Miller (1899–1993) arrived in Chicago in 1917 and steadily built a successful career as a multi-hyphenate creative practitioner in the city over the next fifty years. Modernism also emerged during this period, but for all his avant-garde inclinations, Miller and the work he produced often developed in a counter direction. He developed a signature style, but never embraced geometric abstraction or machine age aesthetics, remaining committed to ornate patternmaking and naturalist, often imaginative figurative storytelling. Miller was not against modernism, but he did resist its privileging of the newness and the idea of solitary artistic "genius" by embracing the past and working collaboratively. Working with other practitioners, Miller left an indelible mark on Chicago. Over the past century, however, many of these multifaceted contributions to art and design in Chicago have become hidden in plain sight if not outright forgotten or lost. This exhibition offers a tapestry of what remains, of what is known: architectural and mural fragments, proofs; sketches and photographs of projects realized and unrealized; vestiges of moments past; and bits of ephemera. Together these pieces tell a story of an innovative, resourceful, and idiosyncratic polymath who offers an alternative vision of what modernism meant in Chicago.

I have/had higher hopes for this first #patternjanuary for Tea Party. I’m struggling with getting it the way I want it on the computer so I can make it repeating. I think part of why I like it is because of the texture of the watercolor paper, but trying to reproduce and retain it in scan or through editing is a nightmare. That’s an ongoing problem I have, so if anyone has any tips, I’d be grateful to hear them. I actually find photographing the designs with a nice quality camera looks a lot better than scans, but then I feel like I ALWAYS struggle with the image being evenly lit so that one side isn’t slightly more shaded or yellow or cooler than the rest. That becomes a really big problem when you are trying to repeat a pattern and need the edges to all match each other. PS, I also really like the combination and contrast of rough sketch pencil with the watercolor painting. #teaparty #prairie #teacups #watercolor #pencil #illustration #robayre #robayrepatterns #letsmakepatterns #patternmaking #patterndesign #surfacepattern #patternjanuary2019

Playing with graph paper= making patterns for new sewn items. One's been brewing for a while.
WIP skirt with hand embroidery. Obviously not in the Alabama Stitch book, but inspired by it while I waited for the book to ship from England.
Not ironed, hemmed or lined yet (don´t want to iron it more than i have to). I´m waiting to just lose those last few kilos before making it up.
I drew up the pattern for the skirt myself after reading Cal Patch´s Design it Yourself: Patternmaking Simplified book.
I´m still not sure whether to do more circles on it, or whether to go for a more minimalist look. Opinions welcome!
