Day one nancy crow spring 2015
This was taken about half an hour after sunrise at the beach. It would have worked better for the previous week assignment but I didn’t want to give up a chance to take photos at the beach. It was difficult to alter the photo with so much orange.
obviously this has nothing to do with my day’s work. I spent all day sewing and sewing and sewing. I’ve decided that I do not like Kelly green or apple green.
I tried to lessen it’s presence with slicing and inserting nicer colors of green; and tried to put in some suggestions of bluebonnets and firewheels. Then I started on the top section which now looks like Medusa about to be let loose on the world. Technically it’s about half done but so far I think it will be good to cut into smaller pieces. But a night’s rest may let me see it differently.
On the way back I discovered that the windshield wiper on the driver side was now in bits and ribbons. Off to Walmart to find a replacement set. Who knew there were so many varieties. At least I knew I had to measure; looked for the book/table that noted which kind I needed to no avail. I haven’t installed them yet—thought I might wait until morning and better light and hopefully no rain.
Maybe I’ll try a very small piece to suggest what I wanted to accomplish that might not take too long to sew up.
