I was listening to ‘Dancing in the Moonlight” and started imagining…picture yourself lying outside on a beautiful evening just staring up at the night sky…relaxing in the night air, music in your head and your imagination kicks in…envisioning the wonder of all around you. Peace and beauty are around you if you just sit back, look around and listen!

Artist's Statement:

Ron Leone: Men In Quilts - I started quilting over 15 years ago after I retired. Since I was child, I always enjoyed working with fabric and creating beautiful things. Whether it was designing & making outfits for marionettes I created or just stitching up some fun Halloween costumes…working with fabric has always been fun to me. Being a tactile person, I find working with fabrics, battings and threads very satisfying. There are few things as sensuously tactile as working in fiber art. The different textures, colors and designs are very inspiring.
Also, though this may sound weird – I find the hum, motion and vibrations of a sewing machine very calming.
Over these many years, I have created many quilts and quilted items that make people happy, keep people warm and make their homes more beautiful – this make me (and them) very happy.
