I am teaching a LOT of new classes this fall and I am really excited about that. I am going to be one busy lady.
The waterlily is a sample for my Digital Art Quilt class. It is one of the “Beyond the Book” classes that I am teaching, which are based on projects from The Spoonflower Handbook, but I am taking them a step further and adding some hands-on components. This is based on a really cute quilt project from the book using an original piece of collage art. We are going to expand the collage idea by making paper collages, handpainting some papers and adding digital layers to the design as well. This one is made only from the pages of an Eddie Bauer catalog and a sharpie drawing of pebble shapes. I think I am going to print it at about 15 inches square and finish it as an art quilt.
Check out most of the fall classes here on my Upcoming Classes page. I have a few more to come that are waiting to confirm dates.
Purple for the waterlily is perfect, “Queen of the Night” tulip color makes it look more dramatic that the pinks. Nicely done, says the Mother of the Artist.
That was evidently a hot color according to Eddie Bauer because I found a lot of it to be able to make a flower out of. :)
