After enjoyable and gratifying careers in the medical and business fields I find myself on a journey to uncover, develop and to express this inner artist that I have joyfully discovered. While I am focused on designing and making art quilts I am also a photographer and have been doing more mixed media of late. My poetry began as a means of self expression while journaling but I found that it is increasingly a practice that I enjoy for its own sake.
I love to work with all kinds of fibers and embellishments in order to create texture and to use various painting techniques to get just the effect that I’m looking for. I very often use my own hand dyed fabric to achieve my artistic goal.
I am in love with color – saturated vibrant color. I have learned that there truly are no “quilt police” when it comes to one’s personal expression of creativity; no right or wrong way. It just has to feel right and look right to you; – it is all a voyage of discovery.

Hello! I discovered your work Wintery Mix in Minneapolis-St. Paul. Beautiful! Took me right back to my Canadian childhood. Is any of your qork for sale? I live in Atlanta. Colleen
Hi Colleen, I apologize for the delay in responding. Life got completely out of hand for several months but I’m BACK!!
I’m delighted to get this kind of feedback about my work. I was in part inspired to make this piece by my own Canadian childhood in Ontario. Please email me at guilagreer@gmail.com and I will send you details about pricing. Thank you so much for your interest in my work.
Love where your journey of discovery is taking you – I’ll definitely be back! =D
Thank you very much – It does take on a life of its own and I’m loving every moment!
Hello. I noticed that you had a class in Woodland Hills. Only one WH that I know of–the place I just moved to. Are you in Southern CA?
Oh wait, I found Baron’s. I could literally walk there from my house!
How exciting! They are a wonderful bunch there. I hope I get to meet you soon.
Thanks Mary. I haven’t posted anything new in a bit. Been busy getting new workshops organized. They’re well underway now and going great. Looking forward to working on the art that I love. thanks so much for your comment.
Hi Guila, Love your blog. Thanks for following me. I too, am in love with color. The more the better. I look forward to seeing your creativity grow!
Guila, your art is almost as beautiful as you are. I guess they go hand-in-hand! Is there an easy way to access the info about breast cancer, like sending me a link. I don’t use FaceBook very much.
Love,
Laurie
Laurie – thanks for reading my blog and for your sweet comment.
I have forwarded you a letter than I received from a good friend who is a breast cancer survivor. She goes into detail as to what has taken place as well as a ‘call to action.’
Thanks again Laurie.
love and hugs,
Guila
