DEJA VU ...



Having thoughts of my life, I've just come across one of my work books with the above (dated October 1993) - some quick ink sketches for containers that were made for a textile game entitled 'Deja Vu'. At some point I will upload this item in more detail.

Self portrait progression ...



The self portrait visuals are progressing VERY well - the latest one (above) & still on the computer designing them!

The first image (left) from earlier in the week has been exceedingly inspirational - both in progressing the design forward & formulating how to structurally make it.

My stitched sample is Photoshopped !


Continuing with the cells mosaic theme, I experimented with some fabrics & have 'photoshopped' one of the images to create these .... some interesting effects !!! You can see the original stitchings in my Stitcherydoodaa blog

"Interspection" now a FlipBook ...



Basic "Interspection" design visuals are displayed together here:

View the FlipBook

They show a series of computer generated designs as thoughts progress from my childhood memories. Captured are recalled & notable 'images in my head' showing certain patterns, house decor, memorabilia, interests & specific dates.

Although at this stage only 'roughs', it is intended they will be made up into actual artworks in future months.
