BiographyDenise BentleyClinton MD
“My art derives from my years' long love of fabric and creating work from fine fabrics.
I'm usually inspired by color combinations that I may see (or imagine) in something that catches my eye; or by colors that complement what I'm currently working on, taking advantage of all the beautiful colors found in the fabric world.
“My Art Quilts, some on canvas, may start with a specific theme, idea or color.
“I've been creating since the age of 12 when my mother taught me to sew on her Classic sewing machine. I will continue to sew and create focusing on my current projects but regularly adding new products.
“During 2020 I decided to convert my backyard shed into the BENTLEY GALLERY where visitors can come by appointment to have a look at what I do.
