CYOP #32 - Quilts as Fine Art + Finding Your Creative "Why" with Fine Artist, Designer and Quilter Luke Haynes
Photo: Nate Watters
Today's show brings me to the studio of Luke Haynes—a fine artist, designer and quilter living and working in LA. When I first heard about Luke's work, I was definitely intrigued. Not only was I very interested to chat with a man who quilts (they're a rare bunch!), but I was also fascinated to learn that his quilts are truly fine art pieces. They're meant to be more about form and conversation than they are about function.
Listen in as we chat about how his work differs from traditional quilting, where he sees himself fitting in with the trendy return of handcrafted goods and the importance of having a deep understanding of the "why" behind any creative venture.
Happy listening!
