Debbie your work is rich and colourful and it expresses your true nature. The tapestries are ablaze with color. They just leap out of the website like tigers here but they also have a warmth created by the combination of hues.
ReplyDeleteThey blend well also like a seamless web. Congratulations
Thank You Tai for your positive comments. When you look at my work now it is hard to imagine that for years my work was all in black and white but mainly shades of GREY!!
ReplyDeleteYes Deb,
ReplyDeletewe must see our our own art as a continuous reflection of our own selves.that which is attaining perfection slowly.
Our art is a very honest reflection of who we are and what our spirit is.
Having said this we must as artists remain detatched from our ego/art and see everything as a journey towards light and perfection.
Remember we in this human form can never be perfect.There is only the perfection of nature.
Great work.
