A Finished Piece …
I finished this little piece a week or so ago, but I have let it “sit” for a while to make sure I didn’t want to add anything and to-day I decided it was OK - although as yet it has no name.
(detail, click on image for link to larger picture)
The finished work is approximately 20cms x 20cms (7 inches x 7 inches), so quite small.
Materials used include tissue paper, tissutex, bond-a-web, fibres, copper, beads, wood, leaves and hand stitching.
very nice!
When I saw this on Sunday, my first instinct was that it was a boat. I was told it wasn’t, but we all interpret or “see” art differntly. Life would be no fun if we didn’t. Does anyone else see a boat or is it just me?
I didnt see a boat till I read dobby’s comment,now I do- at least echoes of images of journeys and sailing. Lovely colours, Karen.
Hi
Love the colour scheme. It looks like a horn to me!
Nice to see more of your work - keep it coming.
Cheers

Paula, Dobby, Linda, and Shirly - thanks for dropping by - I suppose it is kind of boat-like - and now that you have said it Dobby - all I see is a boat!

oooh I like that. I can see the boat, but it’s more of a cornucopia to my eyes..
I love all the textures and pressed leaves.
This is totally beautiful and I love it. It’s so elegant. Great work.
It seems to be a musical instument/horn and the title would be Tidings of Great Joy.

Great piece. I love how the composition grabs my eye and takes me across the whole thing.
Yes, I see the cornucopia. I love the leaf….leaves are so intriguing to me. It is another lovely piece…very elegant.

This is a beautiful piece as is the lovely summery flowers in the previous post. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and an arty 2009.
Hi Karen. I have just discovered your blog and I am enjoying it very much. I work in paper arts and stained glass, although not too much glass lately.
This is a beautiful piece you did and I agree, it looks finished.
Ahh werry werry nice!
