Playing With Texture
I'm still playing with the music score fabric that was recently gifted to me. I am finding the wrong side of the fabric is as useful as the right side. The print shows through just enough to create some texture that is not overpowering. Add a few simple embroidered stars and some acrylic paint in the background and you're done.
I have to confess this started out all wrong. I was trying to do something else and it wasn't working and I was ready to toss it. But I hate to give up and thought I'd try and salvage it. I'm glad I did because I'm very pleased with the final result.

I think it is quite lovely. Your work is so unique and so striking. I am so very happy that I came across your blog via OWOH. I enjoy reading about your creative process and seeing the end result. Sincerely, Theresa
Yes, this one is fantastic! Trying to salvage something can make you extra creative.
I like it alot - there is a lot of texture and dimension here with the face being part of the cloth, instead of appliqued on the background.
