A bit of colour for July

I felt that July required some colour, so I took inspiration from Klimt's The Dancer (1916-18). Her robe is a wonderful mosaic of colours and forms, so I drew my impression of a section from her sleeve, and only added simple enhancements, mostly in pretty beads I bought recently.




Things were finally starting to look up, and there are positive possibilities on the horizon.

BJP - September page


Well, it's done.

I must admit I haven't trimmed it yet, but I'm not sure I'm how I'm going to end up mounting my pages yet, so I want to leave extra around until I do.

The original digital photo, prior to beading:



So I decided to only bead the needles from the front two trees, so the beading would completely overwhelm the photo, and for the sake of expediency.

Now, what to do for October...
