Huron Expositor, 2007-08-08, Page 17News The Huron Expositor • August 8, 2007 Page 17 Seaforth-area quitter wins at Hensall art show Ben F o r r e s t Seaforth-area quilter Judith Elder-JVlcCartney admits faith inspires her art, and that this faith includes a belief in angels. She is quite aware that many think of angels as unreal, however — as products of the imagination. So when it came time to begin work on an entry for the "fantasy" category in a national quilting com- petition, Elder -McCartney chose angels as her subject. "There are many of, us who do not believe in something that we can not see, feel or taste," she wrote in a set of paragraphs that accompanied the piece. "So we close our minds to the idea of a loving entity who is with us always not realizing the little things that happen every day that can be attributed to angels." Difficult as these words may be for some to accept, the work they are paired with has been judged differ- ently. The quilt was rejected from that national quilting competition but came away with top honours in the fabric category at hensall.by.design (h.b.d), an increasingly prestigious art show and sale held July 14-20 at Hensall United Church. "It's a good balance between tech- nique and finished product, and also it takes fabric further," said h.b.d judge John Rutledge in reference to Elder-McCartney's work. "At one point in time you can look at it and think it's a painting, and then you realize it's not a painting," he added. "It's a fabric sculpture, but it's not a sculp- ture either, because it's flat. Also, it's loaded with different techniques, but they all work together as one." H.b.d entered its fourth year in 2007, and co- organizer Ann Bayley seemed pleased with the results. "We had a ter- rific response — increased num- ber of artists, and increased number of art," she said. "We added a new category this year — for people who have exhibited for the Network Classifieds• For more information contact Advertise Across Ontario or Across the Country!

Michael Watts of Goderich took top honours in this category, while Paula Letheren of Bayfield was judged best in the Sculpture catego- ry. Fran Roelands of Ailsa Craig was recognized in the Flatwork category, winning with her work "Medway Road Poppy Field." Strathroy's Bill Ellison's work "Dockside" won the Photography/Digital Art category, and Allysa Wein of Thamesford's work "Crushed" was tops in a cate- gory restricted to youth. Dianne Fries of Waterloo was given the show's honourable men- tion, for her painting "The Titian Venus in a Bowl of Fruit." The show showcased a consider- able number of works from Huron County artists, the quality of which did not surprise Rutledge. "There's a lot of very good talent here," he said, and offered similar comments about the show itself. "It's the calibre of a show you'd find anywhere, and that's... com- mendable to the organizers," he said. "This show holds up to, really, any city show that I've seen. It just shows that;/ we can do it out in the country just as well as anybody else." Anyone wishing to enter or attend next year's show should note a fifth edition is definitely in the works.
