My guest today is Tania Tanti, a Melbourne-based art quilter who loves screen printed fabric paint and embroidery thread! She uses painting and stitch to create bold, expressive art pieces. Her work often lands somewhere between abstract landscapes and portraiture, usually with strong colour, lots of contrast, compelling messaging that opens up the conversation and more than a hint of humour.Tania's Website: taniatanti.com.auQuilter on Fire Website - https://quilteronfire.com/Square One Textile Art WorkshopJoin Brandy’s email listFree Quilter on Fire Holiday Table Runner VIDEOSUPPORT THE PODCAST by becoming a Quilter on Fire Podcast Angel for as little as $3 per week.Support the showThank you for listening to the Quilter on Fire Podcast.

My guest on the podcast today is Robert Bosscher— an artist who explores what it means to make, and why quilting fits so beautifully with his passions for art, history, and speaking through quilts. Robert studied Studio Art and Art History in Michigan, explored many creative mediums along the way, and ultimately found his way to fiber and textile art — quilting in particular. As the child of a quilter, he brings both a curiosity to explore new directions and an emotional connection to his work based on growing up with quilts as a form of comfort and care. His quilts hold that beautiful tension between the art world and the quilting world… and that can be where some of the most interesting conversations live.Robert's Website: https://www.rjbosscher.com/Quilter on Fire Website - https://quilteronfire.com/Square One Textile Art WorkshopJoin Brandy’s email listFree Quilter on Fire Holiday Table Runner VIDEOSUPPORT THE PODCAST by becoming a Quilter on Fire Podcast Angel for as little as $3 per week.Support the showThank you for listening to the Quilter on Fire Podcast.
