Nuance
 |
| After looking at my previous posting about this fabric sample for a while, I realized the fabric needed a whole lot more nuance and depth. It didn't have the mysterious gloaming quality I was looking for. Thank goodness for the electronic retrospect from looking at one's work on- line. I went back into the studio and darkened many areas, and added more blue and more of brown-y purple wine colour. Much better effect. |

New Cotton Shawls
 | |||||

They were a big hit last year, and I have had many requests for more. Hence a large selection at this years Atomic Holiday Bazaar, this weekend (December 10-11th). They are very fun to paint, especially the ones with the open work borders. The multiple square design ones are lively as well. You can see more photos and commentary on my Pamdesign face book page (link above). The scarves flow nicely, but also keep their shape and keep a perky crisp shape around the neck, which I personally like very much. |
Very Large Kitchen Floorcloth
This is a very large, custom floorcloth for a kitchen. Since the shape is a bit special, I made a paper template to make sure it follows the contours of the cabinetry exactly.
It measures about 16 feet long, so finding a wall to stretch the canvas on was crucial. Luckily I was able to do that!
