Nocturnal Business

 Nocturnal Business 20" x 18" 


I loved choosing my colors; Kiwi and Magenta! The limitations were the challenge for me, I love to use as many colors as possible in a my work.  


I used hand dyed fabrics from Vicki Welsh along with my own and a speckled black batik. I painted with acrylics and used cotton threads to enhance my design.



I enjoy replication of real life stuff but it was fun to use my imagination to create flora and fauna...
