Susie Monday

Susie Monday makes art cloth and art quilts in her hilltop studio near Pipe Creek, TX.  Her vibrant contemporary fiber art is inspired by the region's cultures, natural beauty, stories and archetypes.  Often incorporating both her own fabrics and ethnic and vintage cloth into her work, her voice is clear and distinct -- a goal she has for her students, as well.  She has won numerous local and regional awards, and is a member of Texas Originals, the state's select group of craft artists, and artisans.

A studio arts graduate of Trinity University, Susie has been teaching adults and young people for more than 40 years, as well as having worked professionally as a museum designer, graphics art director, newspaper and freelance journalist and educational consultant.  Susie believes creative work is our birthright as human beings and that age, habits and lack of time are no excuse for not finding one's own creative path.  She now works as an artist and teaches fiber arts full time.  See her work on her website and here
