This afternoon I took time to go into the studio and just start. My wise friend Miriam Nathan-Roberts says when the muse is dormant just start! She is wise because it works.
Soon I was engrossed in the process and created this square from a linen dinner napkin for the 2012 SAQA fundraiser auction. Designing a 12″ square block is a great exercise in spontaneous creativity….at least for me. I imagine there are some who carefully plan theirs but I am more prone to spontaneity so other than fuss over contrasting curved lines it was all play with this piece.
Stay tuned…the auction is this fall. You too could own a wonderful piece of textile art while benefiting our professional organization.
Good advice, and it really does work. Love this piece!
Good advise indeed. I always think of the ‘just do it’ line. It gets the same result. DO.
