karen~for sure, a first of many cloths. no turning back there, but am wondering about the drawn face? really defines the cloth in a certain way. maybe try it more vague? what if it would be way less visible, more just a part of something else? don't know at all. will have to see what appears now.
jude ~ a kinship there, yes... and i like the sense of just becoming what's next without needing to know it first. i have a very long relationship with cicadas...admire them enormously. and as always, thank you.
nance ~ ! YES, of course!..see what i mean?..looking at something so long and so intensly, i begin to not see certain things....but yes! this particular one was done at the almost beginning, quickly drawn just on some muslin at hand,and once placed just stayed. the leaves weren't "right", but i could just let that go...hmmm. also, back to the thought of wanting to "age" the faces...or at least make them less overtly feminine, more just a human being. THANK YOU for reminding about the color ground of drawing... what if, tho, i think as i write this, what if then i couldn't use pencil? but then, .... might use the pitt pens?....sepia...??? need to get some greys. xoxo
funny... i need grey pitt pens too for my kantha drawing... i'm drawing stitches. but soon i will be sewing them. i already have the sepia pitt pens and use them a lot.
ohhh so beautiful. she's a full and whispering woman grace. earth air fire plant moon.
i received the package! son put his address by accident as return, so it went to his house, and he brought it to me. my life has been in a whirrr, but seeing and holding this cloth has slowed everything down to the center. thank you SO much grace. any words i write could never express how much emotion the cloth has given me.
i :tried: to write some anyways over at the blog. :) love you!

i even know. thank you for asking
THE question.
The first of many?

The depth of this cloth is staggering. The story flows right into the blood stream. Home of grace, filled with grace, sanctuary. Marti
i am coming here today seeing this as something like that Yesterday hanging by a thread....A beautiful in-between.

vague? what if it would be way
less visible, more just a part of something else? don't know at all.

Chris~thank you

martiAnon ~ blood. yes.
what if the face was drawn on a color more analogous to the piece next time?
