GREG FIDLER, RED BOW SERIES
GREG FIDLER, RED BOW SERIES PAIRSigned,Unknown Year, Blown glass, coldworked,11h x 3.5w and 12h x 6w. · He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Cultural Anthropology from Franklin Pierce College in New Hampshire. · Through the 1990s, he worked in many glass studios from Maine to Seattle while also attending classes at The Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA. The Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, Deer Isle., ME., and The Penland School of Crafts, Penland, NC. · In 2000, Greg received his Master of Arts degree from the University of Illinois and was awarded the Glass Residency at the Penland School of Crafts for the years 2001-2004. · “The familiar essence of glass is derived from a manufactured utilitarian need. Processes in hand forming glass undermine these attributes and in effect give my work purpose. It is my desire to produce sculpture that communicates progression while paying respect to traditional processes and their survival in the present. My ideas owe more to natural forms and my deference for the material than to consciousness obscurity.” Photo by Jeff Dimarco

JANE HUMPHREYS' FRAMED NEEDLEWORK
JANE HUMPHREYS' FRAMED NEEDLEWORK SAMPLER DATED 1790, PENNSYLVANIA Likely Philadelphia or Chester County, worked in multi-color silk thread on linen, with five alphanumeric rows above a flower row and verse, maker's name and date stitched above a line of pine trees and with a bottom row of strawberries, conservation mounted and presented in a molded mahogany veneer frame.
Research accompanying lot suggests that the maker may be the same Jane Humphreys (1759 -1838), whose parents were Joshua and Sarah (Williams) Humphreys. The Humphreys family was a prominent family in Philadelphia and Chester County, and some samplers made by family members have been documented by noted scholars in the field. A white-work 1771 sampler by a Jane Humphreys is included in Ethel Stanwood Bolton and Eva Johnston Coe's 1921 seminal work American Samplers.
