From Edinburgh, Scotland,
Currently living in Moss, Norway.
I chose the theme weather because Scotland is famous for having a lot.
My piece is based on the phrase “If you don’t like the weather, wait 10 minutes.”
This year I decided only to scrumble, and I found it relaxing and fun once things started coming together.
It starts with a blue sky, sunny day, which rapidly moves onto sunshine and showers, luckily with a beautiful rainbow.
Things then progress to a thunderstorm, and then a wee shower of snow.
I made some glass buttons to represent puddles from the rain shower. One has a copper leaf embedded in it, and 3 others have CZ crystals.
The buttons are wonderful, but the overall piece is great. I especially like the "grass" under the puddles/buttons.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great depiction of all the seasons encompassed in one day. We have the same saying in Northern Virginia, but I must admit that the weather changes I experienced near Hadrian's wall were more dramatic than those experienced at home. And you have captured the drama of weather change so beautifully! I love your use of silver thread, rainbow ribbon, buttons, and beads!
ReplyDeleteTia, your depictions of stitches in changing weather are lovely!
