I'm not fond of words in my art so whenever I can I obscure the letters so they become more of lines and markings but this series is all about ancient scribes so I've changed things up a little. The letter of this piece is Kof and I've stenciled three in gold at the bottom. I've placed the word holy (3 times) above which begins with the letter Kof reading from right to left. Actually holy is associated with this letter with many examples. The center photo of wild grass on organza is to me one choice of holy ground. I laid this sheer photo over a painted yellow paper towel so it would have a glow. Loved doing my simple little stitches and bead work. The assortment of fabrics were soaked, dipped or brushed with a mixture of green and gold fabric paint...again I was going for some glow!
This piece touches me. Maybe because of the current tribulations
