I am working away on more fabric postcards, some to rotate at Morse Cafe and the rest to take to Regina for The Art of the Matter exhibition.
I have also been sorting through a box of fabric samples my friend, Jody, gave me years ago….came upon the 2 different greens on this postcard.
Some of you may know – I LOVE to slam on the brakes on a road when I see an artistic old tree…..I LOVE old gnarly trees – dead or alive! So, this is my rendition of a dead tree showing some resistance to the winds it had while living…..
I used a piece of curtain interfacing (from my this box of goodies my neighbour gave me), coloured it with the E59 Walnut Copic Marker, then stitched it down. I forgot to add fusible web before cutting it free hand, so next one will have fusible.
My sister found this on the street one day. I LOVE it!!!
We don’t know which tree gave it up during a wind storm 3 years ago, but it has a place of prominence on my front window sill. The stories it could tell…..
Don’t dismiss looking at old dead or gnarly trees – there is alot of BEAUTY!!!
