Working on a new piece.
As I am working on this new piece, I am excited about the direction that it is going. I’ve placed the photo over it to show where it is going and that I am extending it beyond the photo. And without the photo, this is what I’ve got so far. I was able to hand dye the sky, and I’ll just add more detail for the sun. I’m hoping to get a good shimmer of sunshine on the water. I love the challenge of trying to replicate the photo with fabric and so far, I love the direction...

Ocean Textile Art: A beginning.
After returning from another trip to the coast, I have begun a piece that I am excited about. This was from a recent trip, that my husband and I took for the purpose of taking pictures for Art pieces. This one makes me smile, because he doesn’t particularly enjoy the beach. He goes because I love it. And I love him for that! I was able to dye the sky fabric today and am happy with it so far. Next, I’ll be adding the water.

Half Moon Bay Textile Art
Just wanted to share a little of the progress pictures in the making of my latest Textile art. I decided to work from a photograph that I took at Martin’s Beach in Half Moon Bay. It was such a joy working on this piece! So many ideas running through my head for another ocean scene. Although, I think that my next piece will be one of Upper Falls at Yosemite. Until then, Cynthia You can see more of my textile art here.

Making progress on Ocean Scene
I’m making progress on the ocean scene that I’ve been working on. I trying to have it done within a week. I was able to get a lot of pictures taken on my trip to Carmel. It was a little overcast, so I would like to go back when the sun is out. Some shadows make the textile art look better, so I’m going to say that another trip is necessary! That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it. The next piece that I have on the table is a waterfall scene from Yosemite. But, I’m a little torn...

Ocean Textile Art
Ocean Textile Art I’ve been working on an ocean scene this week. I couldn’t find just the right fabric for the sky, so I ombré dyed a piece myself. I wanted it to be darker near the top. It turned out just like the sky from the photograph that I’m working from, so I’m pretty happy about that. I’ll be heading to Carmel soon to take pictures, and I just can’t wait! I’m hoping that it isn’t smoky there. It has been pretty bad in Sacramento. I have been planning on a trip to Carmel since January, but we had...
