Just as a little aside from other makings,
Not quite a scrap book, not quite a mood board…
I’m calling it my Wish Book
These are some elements for pages serving to crystalise in my mind the hopes I have for the near future…
Delighting in the way they find their places together
unplanned (such is my style!)
these are the colors and shapes I am running towards
the textures and lushness
the future starts here! 
Heavenly colours!!! Very inspiring..TFS!
Rich textures!
The colours scream of spring!
that must have been an unconcious thing – but yes, you’re so right!
The adventure starts here, yes it does. Very lovely colors.
thanks my friend!
I’m just loving what you have done here. Colors and textures. Just beautiful!
thank you so Judy! X
Oh my goodness!! This is simply so beautiful and amazing that I don’t know where to start. The colors and textures are all so rich and gorgeous. I am amazed at how you are able to combine all of this together, and it works so perfectly to create a unique and vibrant work of art. If I tried this, I would end up with a huge mess, I just know it! Gorgeous, gorgeous work.
I have to say, though … My very favorite part is the word “wish”. I love the style of the lettering. The “W”, in particular, is wonderful.
aw thanks my friend! I’m finding the less time I spend in the ‘faffing about’ stage the better – the ‘just going for it’ technique is by far the best approach! Not easy to begin with, but with practice it’s getting easier to let go of expectations n just letting it all fall into place. (I’m very fond of the Wish too! I think mostly cos it’s something very personal to me – that shows through)
Although complete in themselves I see these also as paintings to be. What do your instructors think of your fabric art – or do you keep them to yourself?
I haven’t had a chance (yet) to include any in college work. But generally they’re very open to mixed media type stuff. So far it’s been quite focussed on new techniques. I’ll post up some school stuff soon
Look forward to seeing it Eph…
[...] I showed you the first page of my latest project – the first one I could call finished [...]
I like! Go for it……
Oh my gosh. Just know I am now stalking your blog. LOVE the textures and colours. Your work is incredible. So lush and juicy.
Lol that’s cool!
