Dear o dear! What ever next! If you know your tea towels you'll know linen and cotton are involved. Of course it's because they absorb moisture and just right to wipe those pots and pans. And who cares if they are stained because it won't matter. Will it? Lots of splatters and the usual old dots are there too. The dots are there to tell you it's a determined work of art. No I didn't trip with the Japanese ink the effect has been well thought out. I'm sure all artists feel as if these kind of endeavours could result in a disaster. I like it and I loved creating it so that's all that matters.

Fabulous linen again. It has such great qualities, absorption being one. When you paint on linen you can get depth and character and of course great frayed edges. I'm sure, just as food has memory value, well so does linen. It reminds me of the quality clothes that were affordable all those years ago, cut and sewn so accurately and completed as tailored masterpieces. (I might have overdone that description a bit). So please manufacturers keep on weaving that linen out of flax or whatever the raw material. If you're interested you can see this bag on Etsy at creatifbitsnpieces. Yes, I'm not sure about this wall hanging. I appreciate the artist and his work all those years ago, however I think it might have a different interpretation in 2019. I couldn't find the artist's idea with research but mine is the rise of equality, With the sun strategically placed at the small of the back could define the energy involved and the lines encouraging a higher reach or level. Anyway I've put it out there. It's a denim background with sun and lines screen printed with fabric dyes. The figure I have painted in myself with acrylics. It measures 87cm by 46cm or 18 x 34 inches.
