Sunflower

without comments

This sunflower is the second picture I did on peltex.  I love sunflowers. They show up in lots of my work.
I usually try to keep these cards around 4″x 6″ in size.  I really enjoyed doing both these cards.  I’m still on track with my goals and I have been creating several fiber post cards a day.  I need to start my journal quilt for this month.  I don’t have any idea what I want to do for this month. Some pictures of my journal quilt projects are coming soon.  Wola!  Pictures you say.  It’s about time!

This is one of the post cards I did on the peltex . I am pleased with the results. Although, it was not that easy at first when I tried the color pencils. The point kept getting caught on the fibers and it was a very light color wash. I knew I wanted it to be more saturated with color. The oil pastels worked beautifully. I want to experiment with the peltex again. Only I want to try some acrylics thinned  out and charcoals.
