Last week, while I was
waiting and generally getting side tracked, I noticed a rather nice pattern had appeared on a piece of fabric I'd placed under some garden fleece I was painting (don't ask!) to catch the excess paint. The fleece experiment wasn't a success but I fiddled around with that bit of fabric as it seemed to have flowers on. I cut and stitched, and added some organza. I painted some handmade paper and stitched the fabric on. I used my new lumiere paints that I got from my recent visit to
Art Van Go.

Jolly Summer - 17cm x 21cm |
The text is from The Fairie Queene (Edmund Spenser) because it seemed quite a jolly piece, especially when the sky was grey over the weekend. I'm not actually sure how much I like it, but my neighbour does so I thought I'd share it anyway! (And is it a textile piece, or is it really mixed media, or doesn't it really matter? It all gets very complicated at times!)
The sun is back now - let's hope it stays awhile this time!

Does it matter how it is described? It is a beautiful piece.
Loads of texture and subtle colour accents - lovely.
A lovely piece Su. You have prompted me to seek out some Edmund Spenser poetry.
