Inspiration Tuesday

Pattern

I have been working on organizing my collage/paper/book studio (more on that later) and it made me realize how many feathers I have collected. I love everything about them — their texture, their patterns, their colors. I’m surprised they have never appeared in my art.

This is a little changing display I have of nature and family items. My nephew Paul brought me the strip weaving from Guatemala in the upper right hand corner. It is coiled and holds, yes, feathers.

The snazzy plastic in the background is protecting large sheets of matboard and foamcore.

The artwork, Blue Door, is by nephew, Adam. It was his first effort using wax and my painted and screenprinted tissue paper. I shamelessly made it clear I would love to have it for my collection!
