A while ago I had gathered some black and white fabrics, and I always have plenty of blues, so I got a good start on this piece, until I found that the sparkly organza overlay somehow got cut at the bottom, and I had to piece another scrap on top and hand-sew it in.
I found the larger pattern of the black and white fabric to be too stark as it was, so I mixed some blue and black ink into water and dyed them, with a bit more blue applied to the edges.
The only added color would be the bit of silver in the sky with their "reflections" of the sparkles in the water.
Thanks, Ann, for a great challenge. Comments welcome, as always!
Wonderful feeling in this piece. Very organic, yet a bit abstract.
ReplyDeleteI like all the visual textures, the watery feel,and the not rectangular shape.
