WHAT AM I: an artist, a teacher, an explorer, a learner. All that I do gets into my creativity eventually. I love trying and learning heaps ..I get bored easily.
First I drew a pattern of interwoven lines (= all the journeys of learning different techniques) these lead to small projects and eventually all get added to a big project.
I decided that I would use a different technique on each line and square.
I constantly learn and I never know where, what I'm learning, will fit in my life but everything eventually fits and changes me for the better. THIS IS WHO I AM:

I traced the pattern on sheer fabric then auditioned different backing fabrics , looking for a bright but mottled effect.
Final choice of material and backing.

Preparation for burning the pattern.
Love this design. I think I'll explore this sort of thing some more later on .. looks celtic (my background .. who knew it would pop out on it's own, by what I drew being transposed when I traced it), exotic and mystical.
