This was my first idea which came into my head when first hearing of the Challenge. I had a few other ideas but kept coming back to the links in a chain. When sketching it out I drew the background first to keep in with the theme and then added the chain. I used piecing in the background and then on the chain itself I used fabric paint and oil paint sticks - had fun and look forward to the next challenge.
Beautiful piece, Patricia. I love the chain idea and the way you have got so much movement in your design. Is it a real chain then that you have painted - plastic?

Love your chain and that some of the links are open. The movement in your piece makes me almost hear the chain clinking!
ReplyDeleteA lovely piece Patricia. I also like that some of the links are not quite closed ..... shows how fragile connections can be.
ReplyDeleteGreat piece of work- The making of the chain ( so effective)is most interesting
