I spent an hour this afternoon attending the gallery tour led by Bill Morton and Jolie Bird. What an inspirational exhibition about Kimonos. There were not only some amazing Kimonos made by both Bill and Jolie, but also some also made by students who had taken classes with Bill over the years.

A wedding Kimono
Eco dyed
This one was paper made from abaca and blue jeans, by Barbara Sutherland
I was fortunate to have taken a class with Bill, making stencils, so I know how astoundingly detailed and difficult these ones are. I am in awe!
