Today was the day and members of the group got to grips with 'Fractured Surfaces' ....
The colours shown here do not do justice to the actual pieces of fabric produced. The picture above shows was produced by mother and daughter as a team and they chose the larger format as per my instructions. It was a mixtutre of silk and velvet in the oddest colours but the combination really worked.
This one was created using fabrics which measured half the size of the piece shown first. It also demonstrates what happens if you do not put a backing fabric behind the reassenmbled strips which is of a similar colour.
This one is work in progress and hopefully will be completed for our June meeting. It incorporates velvet which adds a further dimension to the work. Unfortunately one of the pieces is missing that was produced. Not sure how it got missed, but apologies to the person concerned.
This was a mixture of velvet and habotai silk mounted onto a piece of dupin silk ... what next
Print circles onto a piece of black felt and cut away a spiral. Overlay onto the fractured piece.
A piece of card has been cut away with a scalpel and also overprinted before laying it over the original red sample shown earlier on.
and, finally, this is the piece of felt cut out from the black felt square which has been overlaid onto the red fractured surface.
