Submergence

"Submergence is one of my water quilts, suggesting through color the attractiveness of ocean, the desire to explore its mystery. Though the water's surface seems just within hand's reach, the depths hold our attention. However, not being a swimmer, I've experienced being caught underwater and needing to be fished out. The water's surface was bright with sunlight, but, to me, unattainable. Yet when I look at Submergence I can imagine being surrounded by water and unafraid."
