Emma Andres was born and lived all her life in Prescott, Arizona. She was a self-taught artist, who specialized in miniature desert landscapes and was active in painting primarily from the 1930s to 1950s.
She remains better known, however, for her quilting, a skill she learned from her mother, Anna Andres, and something she worked on while keeping company with her father in his Prescott cigar store.
Original quilts by Andres include her 1938 Arizona Commemorative Quil (showing 500 of 1216 characters). |
