Well, I finished my "Wisdom of Trees" piece. I am calling it "The Hidden Life of Trees".
The world of trees is a world of sunlight and light. However, below this canopy can lie a world of hidden life in the dark shelter of the oldest trunks and roots.
For this quilt, I used raw-edge applique for the bark. I let the background fabric speak of the foliage and sky. I used swarovski and glass seed beads suggest the hidden life.

I love this! It reminds me of the most evocative illustrations in storybooks, I immediately feel a wonderful sense of creepiness. And the hidden life vibe is strong. I feel like an owl is about to fly right out and hoot at me!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Shannon. I immediately thought of a story illustration! So engaging!
