From small beginnnings...

Mannie began the next piece of art work with a small drawing which she then translated into her fabric image. This art piece has some similarities to the vintage Victorian garden she had just completed.
And now the embellishments begin.

We had talked about the image not being exact to the image in one's head. An artist can fight to secure that image by the control of every aspect of materials and techniques or embrace the serendipity of the creative process -go with the flow.
