FEBRUARY from Mieke.

Here are my next lot of letters, as before printed on muslin with a background of some photo's I took from various pieces I like.
                     Background of a little display cabinet with mini pottery I made some time ago.
                                               Background of a piece of white-washed  timber.
                                         Some more clay,  just some curly-wurlies pieces on sticks I like doing.
                             A bit hard to see here, 1 teapot 1 lidded pot I did in a soda firing workshop.

I will post my previous letters in every post but 1 step closer to finished piece which will be a artist book hopefully.
             The background sheet I made by scanning several objects and then printing on 220gr paper.
                Here just corrugated cardboard with feathers from my chookies. I the printed some words        beginning with the corresponding letter. Then sewing the letter on top.
                                  Background scanning of textured wallpaper.
A Scarf scanned.
                                                        
White and tea-dyed muslin.

  4. It seems to be a result of an advanced resarch. A lot of creativity. All these elements go together so well. Very nice!
