Slow and Steady....

This week I had more things to do for my Inside Out Studio markets, so didn't have as much time for stitching....

but I did get some more done to the piece I posted last week.  Slow and steady progress, the right side is filling in where it needs.


I know this is a terrible photo because it's out of focus, but because it's blurry I kindof like it!  feels more fleeting to me/ like memory.

Anyway, since progress is slow, I thought to share an older work - read on!

This photo reminded me of how it looked outside yesterday, even though it was taken a few years back....

snowy fields, with the corn still poking through because it's not a lot of snow yet....

misty mountains, dark pines, snowflakes here and there floating down - that's how yesterday was. so beautiful....

Here is the piece that was inspired by that photo.

It's called 'Respite'.... it's 12"x12", and is one of my more mixed media pieces. I painted layers of acrylic paint, then did some hand stitching in the center and for the field lines.

check out the detail shot next:

Here's that detail.

This piece was a donation for InLiquid's annual fundraiser back when I made it, so it now lives in a private collection in Philadelphia.

where by the way, they got WAY more snow than we did this past week and I am getting a little miffed about the switch. Vermont is supposed to be snowier!

ah well, soon maybe the fields will be covered with a white blanket....

in time for Christmas?
