Description:
Artist Statement: "For years, I have been admiring some paintings of musicians hanging in our local Cuban restaurant. With permission, the three figures on the quilt are from these paintings done by the restaurant owner's mother. I designed the background from a public domain photograph of a street in Havana and had it printed by Spoonflower. The figures were appliquéd on after it was matchstick quilted."
