The fact you chose Felting as your method takes this a step further. I love it.

How true, I had never thought of this difference between circles and spirals and I use a lot of them in my work. I love your piece and your thinking process.

As I said I also found this artist extremely difficult to interpret and also can't produce "messy" work. Your excerpt of his essay on spirals was most interesting and although it was a challenge it has turned out to be a good challenge and your piece interprets that so well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782529108660000163.post-27732722974359008412017-02-28T02:49:10.430+00:002017-02-28T02:49:10.430+00:00Maybe all of us learned new things with this artis...Maybe all of us learned new things with this artist . I relate to your 'processing' and I found myself doing much the same . Because his works are so busy it was difficult to extract elements to interpret or to simplify. I really enjoyed your interpretation of his spirals .Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14736653792451601834noreply@blogger.com
