photosuck

the photo sucks but you get the hang.two views of fuji-san side by side with a woven frieze. watercolor painted background on the one on the left. it aligns and squares off in real life rest assured. always thought that if i needed a big blurb to explain the work,i might as well write essays.i give hints, the rest is the viewer's work.

after all the issues with the linen warp this series is quite enjoyable.my aim is to let the materials speak too.after all it's weaving.

and in the why not dept.

scads of watercolor pencils, crayons and cakes lying around  idle. why not convert them to ink and use them on textiles? i
then i don't have to buy textile inks ( she said thinking of the airbrush)

it does work albeit subtle in color. i  don't care much as it will detract from the image  transfers.

the midgets

liliput town here. the leaves give the scale

how about the cucumber?leaves next to it are bamboo leaves.

my japanese classmate  who has a real veg garden is also bitching.  i am looking forward to next year to see if it's better.
