Flocking off

As ever Morley is my anchor at times of change.  Much as I would like to tell various people to flock off , this is still a textile-based post.
Continuing to work on the scallop piece and experimenting with ways to generate images of texture on cloth.  First of all, using flock to add the text to the dyed cloth.  I really like the way this looks like a shadow from the distance, but is textured when you are closer.

  1. I really like the way the flocked piece is coming along, it's the visual equivalent of onamatoepeia (sp?) it really looks as if its is drowning!

  2. Much thoughtful lovliness. Your scallop piece is very impressive! Glad that you have such a great outlet for side-stepping 'real life' for a while. x
