There seems to be more depth and a few shadows here and there. It may be a trick of the light though. I love the way you are protecting/nurturing your sun? moon?
okay is it a sun or a moon? some comments refer to a moon and some a sun. Solstice usually refers to the distance of the sun from the equator, if I am correct. I love Jude's comment.
Helen, i hope to have it pretty much finished by tomorrow and want to write something about the experience of making it in a post but what i have loved is the array of impressions. sun/moon temple/tent/tree this has made me very happy...
Can hardly wait for your writing. I know I tend to be black and white sometimes and it comes across harshly, sorry.Like I said on Jude's blog "art is subjective" so it can be a sun or a moon, what ever fits the owner's story, I just felt confused a little with the word "solstice". I'm not making any friends lately am I? Maybe I should hold off on commenting for awhile,
Helen, I am going to jump right in and say please continue to comment. We all have ways of seeing and feeling the art that is before us and it is all important. Solstice is Sun but when I looked at the orb that grace had placed in the bottom layer of her dark cloth, I saw the moon. Light comes from the sun, a warming light. Light comes from the moon, a cooling light- it's all illumination as are all of our comments.

Wow! Very cool.
Wow! solstice,I love the fact that the sun is below in your work.
I'm liking it. Are you capturing the moon? or rooted in the moon?

i say there is a sun keeper in process.
what exactly is a sun keeper?

;~) Debi
a sun keep is just a sort of a story in my head. a way to remember and honor the sun.
The fabric for the sky is wonderful...perfect for the solstice sky in your cloth.
