experiments -answering back with an attitude

experiment2

As everything is getting back to normality, albeit slowly, my studio time is also coming back.
i needed to walk on the wild side and let myself go as all this domestic BS was driving me nuts.

Water soluble stabilizer, machine stitching and assorted backings were pulled out from the depths and i started feting, stitching, painting and layering.
Except for the water soluble stabilizer i really don't know what i was using as products change their names as soon as they hit Spanish soil.Wonder why, but you should only see the movie titles!
The top one might be vilene with an iron on glue so to speak.
One of the backings looked and acted as nappy liner, i think(what do i know?) :)
It didn't react to the heat gun but absorbed water like crazy and held paints well. Here is what i did with it
experiment1

i also used poly organza as a backing for needlefelting. i left the edges raw and wild and didn't care if it became distorted.
experiment3
i added some dimensional paint and zapped it with the heat gun, my favorite toy so far.The heat also distressed the tulle netting a bit which was fine as this was an experiment. And topping it there was this wonderful tangle of machine embroidery that had been sewn to the water soluble backing and eliminated.

It surely feels great to be back in the land of the living.

it's official



Deckard is a replicant. Blade Runner final cut dispels the erstwhile controversy.
After that being settled now it's time to park my Japanese lessons until next year.
How much human is human?

chinese medicine




Bad, bad cough. Nasal and sinus congestion. Ginger comes to rescue.
Grind fresh ginger, put it in water and heat. Aspire the vapor, then sieve the liquid saving the ginger shavings for another sesion. Mix the liquid with milk and drink it.You can add sugar, but i like the kick, hot and pungent. Get in bed under the covers.
Repeat twice, three times at the most in one day. Guaranteed to get you better.
Ask me how i know.
