Making Fire

12"x18",cotton printed cloth, muslin, tea stained cloth, stamped cloth, machine stitching, silver threads and gold leaf, cut images, cloth pen and fashion trim.

This piece above is part of a two piece series... 'Constellation of Clouds' in the previous post is the other half. This one representing pillars of fire. I stayed with just cutting shapes with scissors and machine stitching...a challenge for sure. I look forward to return to my needle, thimble and thread.
 Both are 'maps' for the ancient desert traveler. For me these two have been a lesson in trust which is really good to have when making art!
