Challenge
I have decided to base my image for the Challenge based on this encaustic image I did of my daughter. The original image was taken on the beach while in Africa. She was a Peace Corp volunteer and I was fortunate to visit her for almost 3 months. I'm doing an art quilt and in the suggested colors as well as honoring her as someone I truly admire. That time changed my life in many ways. Would love to go back there. I was in the middle of a photo course and would like to revisit with better cameras and more skills. I took many pictures with a Holga camera and lost some great shots when the back of the camera fell off, especially a large sheep draped over the back of the shepard up in the mountains of Lesotho. All my Holgas wear rubber bands or velcro now. The planning stage for the project has been very thought provoking, about the subject and techniques I want to use. So will sew a quilt and embellish with beads or embroidery, hoping to find everything in my stash.
Hi Terry
haven't been to your blog for awhile. Your quilt sounds wonderful. It's fridged cold here today. Hope to see a picture of the quilt when done.
