This was my inspiration, Oil Patch Heart Beat, 2013, which really spoke to me.
The group blog of four quiltmakers and textile artists scattered around the world in 4 countries and across three continents. Our aim is to create a small quilt every three months. The theme is chosen by the members in turn. Our website is: www.12bythedozen.weebly.com
I really love this technique which you have used to such good effect.A brilliant interpretation of the painting
ReplyDeleteYour piece is intriguing. What techniques did you use to get the diversity in your colors and with the shapes? Love what you did!!
ReplyDeleteI used many pieces of commercial and my hand dyed fabrics collaged onto a background of blue silk and then heavily quilted. I meant to add a detail shot but forgot. Here is one
DeleteYou are the master of collage...the detail, the placement of color and shape...WOW!!
DeleteWow! This is amazing. I just love what you have done.
ReplyDeleteI think you should work in circles more often - it so suits your style! Lovely piece.
ReplyDeleteGreat style, and a very neat, clever presentation.
ReplyDeleteI really like this interpretation and it looks just rightin that frame.
ReplyDeleteThis is an exquisite piece of work. I can't imagine how long it must have taken to collage all the pieces and then quilt it. Altogether beautiful - you should be proud. I love the fact that you have presented this piece in a circle which adds to the overall look.
ReplyDeleteYes, create some more circular pieces for your next show and see how they are received. Love it, great depth.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely piece Helena, and you've picked up the colours beautifully. Having seen it in person, I can vouch for how lovely it is!
ReplyDeleteStunning. Superb interpretation and one that suits your style of collaging fabrics and colour perfectly. I agree that you should think about round pieces in the future.
