Another way to go

Thought it was about time to remember work I started after the end of my first year at uni. These works were formed with the painted silk fabrics that were included in the final assessment and awaiting inclusion in a project.

Together, 2011

The three towers represent my sons and myself. The circles symbolise events that occur but of which there is no control over, I try to hold on tight to my sons.

I next want to think about the work of Anna Glasbrook that I saw at Gloucester Cathedral before christmas and already featured on this blog. But what am I going to focus on? Maybe perfection, perhaps vulnerability and hidden strengths. I would like to try more transparent fabrics, more stitch, maybe drawn images or maybe just symbolic / abstract. Get going on the sketchbook and see what happens next.
