More work in progress – a couple of new large textile paintings, a continuation of my LineScape Series.
With 3 art shows coming up within the next 3 months, and high potential for a 4th one later this fall, I’ve got good incentive to get a bunch of new work done, including some larger pieces to fill some of the larger exhibit spaces.
LineScape #30 is another Pelican Lakes piece, a place holding so many great memories where I have spent lots of time swimming, biking, and running. It is the largest textile painting so far in this series – 4.5 by 6 feet. I’m building out the base composition by pinning cloth pieces together on the wall and will then cut, shape, and hand stitch these pieces together. More layers of fabric, paint, and stitch will be added on top.
I’ll continue to show progress updates as they happen…my goal is to have this one done before end of July – Wahoo!
What big challenges are you taking on this summer?
