I work with a smaller group (6 people) locally, called Quartique, on challenges and as with this group I have worked within a theme to create 'one' piece. The theme had to be stretched in some cases to fit in. The one theme could not fit in and I had another idea so that was the 'recycle' which I showed earlier. These are all whole cloths and I have used various surface techniques to get the effects. They are not in the order of the challenges as they grew as I went along. The challenges were, starting from the left...... fractured(painted applique paper); re-modelling a traditional block = 9 patch; signs & symbols (scorpio); vertical & horizontal lines (used a thermofax on background with +); revolution.
The strips are approximately 6 x 24 inches.
Very clever, Phil. Will you produce more pieces in this series? I am interested in colour transition these days, so I can appreciate what you have done with these lovely complementaries.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! The circles tie in all the different methods. It gives the feeling of being a lot larger than 6" high.
ReplyDeletethe design elements and usage of color work so well. good job phil
ReplyDeleteThis series is done! Apologies, to clarify the sizing.....each strip is 24" long and just over 6" wide so it is approximately 33" wide
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this - it's great to get a feel for people's work outside the group challenge.
ReplyDeleteLove the transitions into the various techniques!
