I called it Comfy Kitsch because it reminds me of simpler times, childhood, warm blankets and memories of my grandparents. As a child at my grandparent's house I'd wander through the rooms and snoop through drawers (I mostly had permission to do so) curious to see all the wonderful treasures hidden inside. My grandma was a renaissance woman. She was an expert seamstress, a hairdresser by profession, a women with style, and very crafty. Ha, I meant she was good with her hands. ANYWAY... I'd find wonderful costume jewelry (from the seventies), scarves, hair pins, bobbins, perm curlers, beads, rick rack, odds and ends of various sorts. When I conjure up those memories it is as if I can feel the texture of the objects, I can smell the cooking on grandma's stove and the wood stove in the basement. I can hear their voices. It is enough to make me cry for a time that lives only in memory. Comfy Kitsch is my attempt to recreate that feeling.
