For this challenge I
drew my inspiration from Neptune, the god of water and of the sea. My piece is
worked in reeled silk the colour of the Mediterranean. Since I chose to work in
only one colour I used the texture of many different stitches for a variety of
effects. Sharks teeth, shells, fins, aquatic plants, and abandoned fishing nets
are some of the motifs that you can find amidst the swirling waters.
I love freeform work.
It can be bold or subtle, colourful or monochromatic, but whatever it is, it is
always interesting and always unique.
