One Small Step

One knows when reading or watching mysteries to understand that there are no coincidences.  The same does not translate so easily to life.  In my own, I would have to rationalize a whole lifetime of coincidences.  Just my being a studio artist working in fiber is a stretch from a twenty year career in real estate punctuated with my stint as artists' representative.


One Small Step into My Universe


With this challenge I looked at what composed my own universe Here and Now:

autumnal colors, mostly cotton fabric both commercial and hand dyed

use of ink and paint

hand stitching along with free-motion, sometimes using a double needle

images of leaves, moons and birds, usually black

The result was "One Small Step into My Universe", 18" x 18".

    Very unusual interpretation Diane! And a very atmospheric piece! I really like the concept of one's universe in the here and now.

    This is great, Diane. I see you in the here and now in it! It's interesting to look at all of the interpretations of this challenge - the universe, the sub-atomic, the here and the there, the then and the now. It's all just great!
