Marking a grey stone with rusty coloured threads
One of my favourite colour combinations.
Strange shape
Strange markings
Perhaps appropriate.... it being Halloween today.
Don't you think that stone
looks like a piece of crumpled paper?
It looks more delicate than my heavy handed interpretation
in this photograph.
And how about looking at the world upside down?
A boomerang from an Australian point of view!
This was fun
A bit like Tiptoeing over a brown speckled egg.
Considering the background painting,
I wish I had stitched my marks with rust again.
Have a great day
Put your mark on it!
I think they are getting more and more way out. No time to stitch here I am still trying to find things after the move.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of mottled gray and rust...yours is the best yet!!
ReplyDeleteYou will probably find that your rendering of the crumpled-paper stone will seem less heavy handed when it is with all its friends!
ReplyDeleteI agree that one stone looks like a wad of crumpled paper...but also think your rendering of all of them suits each as individuals. :-) Mark-making on this snow day, embroidering the motifs on a Social Justice Sewing Academy block...seed stitch, this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to see how many stones are some variation on grey and rust. For some reason I would have thought that grey & black or even black & white would be more common. Proves I need to pay closer attention!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE your paintings.
ReplyDeleteAs I looked at these it came to me that stones are maps of their own creation ... and I especially love the crumpled paper stone
ReplyDeletecrumpled paper stone = a failed game of rock paper scissors?
