Landscape, Lace, and Long Ago


When I'm not working, I'm generally found in my studio...working!  Lately I've been obsessed with fiber.  My fiber guild decided to show some of our work at Saline library next week, so I've been up to my ears in fiber, fabric, and thread!  Here's a couple of examples of what I've been working on step by step......
Landscape





Did you notice the onion bag I incorporated?


Lace






Long Ago


This piece you might remember, was for the Paris Challenge.  I called it "Paris 1940's"

A Challenge called "Paris"



We were given a challenge several months ago during Cake Eaters, an art group I'm involved with.  It was a one word theme...Paris.  Naturally visions of the Eiffel Tower immediately come to mind.  However, my frame of mind hasn't been normal lately.  So I thought...and sketched...and dreamed.  The week before the deadline I physically started putting my ideas on fabric.  This is what I made...



I call it, "Paris in the 1940's"
