Black, White & Tea




Vector practice (abstract marks with found objects, usually sumi ink on silk) continues with a reprise of the group show, this time more domesticated, as in framed, presented in a neat line on a wall – that sort of thing. Layering silk still so appealing. Here is genesis of a larger piece, beginning with a piece of raw silk, found tools (top–foxtail barely seed head, next–a small square of card stock) dipped in black ink. Didn't particularly like the result, cut it up into squares, sewed them together (photo 3), didn't like that either, then layering began. Really like that. It will be matted & framed.
