I did this little drawing earlier in the week and like it a lot. So while I've been sitting around 'feeding a cold' (with lots of cookies!) I decided to do it as a larger 4 part drawing, which I am also quite happy with.
My intention for this one, at some point, is to get a better photo of each section (without the odd color cast), print it on fabric, and make it into a small art quilt for the
Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. I've started their $1000 Promise and am at $160 so far, but I need to get a few more sent in soon. The color cast was from photographing the drawing under 2 different lights - one was my craft sewing light which is supposed to be a daylight cast, the other was a standard flourescent overhead tube. The sewing light gave it the reddish cast on the left, the flourescent gives it the blue cast on the right. I usually prefer the blue if I have to have one, but really don't want both in this uneven cast.

This is beautiful work, Sande! The colour is floated so delicately it simply seems an essential part of the whole, rather than a bold and distracting element and the overall designs themselves, for both pieces, are absolutely lovely. Excellent! I can't wait to see the second as an art quilt - when you work on it, please consider posting "work in progress" photos; I'd love to see how you work this up. I know it will be a remarkable piece of art.
