There are certain artists that you remember vividly the first time you saw their work. Julian Jamaal Jones is one of those artists for me. When I saw the body of work he produced at Cranbrook, these all black quilts with bold and colorful marks, I felt like I was seeing a brand new thing in this world.

In this conversation, we discuss:

① how to create intimate inner circles with your audience through your work

② how to bring a spirit of joy and gratitude to your practice

③ and what his grandma really things about his quilts

You can learn more about Julian on Instagram.
