Detailed head-Red Egret Catching up
This is a continuation of an earlier post, I’m sharing some completed art quilts with you. I included several closer looks
- Red Igret
- Red Egret, full view. A silk painted art quilt, heavy thread painting ,,glimmers of reflected light in the water, as the sun drops lower in the sky. Effect created when the paint was being mixed.. Egret head and body created with layered thread painting.
Detail of the red features were created.
Detailed view of the water, when mixing the paint color, the additions of certain elements to the paint to create the illusion of the water sparkling as the late afternoon light reflects off the water.
Color Melts- a watercolor like silk painting done in a dreamy impression style.
Length 43″, mounted on stretcher boards
Color Melts-entire silk painting, mounted
The Egret was created with thread painting. Multiple layers created the dimensional head and body feathers.
