And it also feels as though my exploratory series of self portraits, a surprise really, have come to a temporary end. After all, self portraits are a continuing interest of mine so certainly more will follow. For now I need to stop and think.

I have three pieces to show for my summer efforts, the idea is based on some issues I had this summer with my eyes. Amazing how your life changes when your eyes are effected, naturally one feels compelled to make art.
The surprise of this series was the impact of the holes in the tapestries. As you may remember, if you are a regular reader, I have made no cartoons, preferring to let the tapestry language tell me where to go. The final piece in this trio, Prisms, found me exploring open warps within the piece. I'm still not clear how the effect I want will be resolved, but that's part of this process.
Most importantly I'm pushing my boundaries, heading into risky territory which is what artists need to do.
What might happen?
Stay tuned.
Interesting effect! It gives a sense of antiquity to my eye. You did good this summer!😊
ReplyDeleteI appreciate that Judy, that metallic is a very warm silver, I think that helps. I'm still pondering what my next move will be with this idea, just had a couple thoughts while I was mowing the grass!
