Fragments Art Journal
Fragments Art Journal
In 2005, I made a quilt with a lot of image transfers of parts of buildings on it. It was named Fragments. There were a lot of transfers, the release papers and practice pieces leftover that I wanted to do something with. It occurred to me recently that they might be good practice for some painting.
Here are a few of the pages with the fabric and paper transfers glued to them with some other bits of stuff. Since I took the photos, I took them apart so each spread is a single layer. When they are all finished they will be sewn back to back to make signatures. I did this practice spread to decide on supplies needed and will take the pages along on the Aussie trip for something to do. I'm trying to do this in a style reminiscent of DJ Pettitt.

Well, if that's your "practice" spread, I can't wait to see the rest of it. Beautiful!

Re: Fragments Art Journal
Ditto! Wow!
Re: Fragments Art Journal
Thank you! Believe me it was practice and trial and error especially trying to find something that would stick to the window which is on photo paper. I did water transfers using photo paper on the quilt. At least there are only a few in the journal.
Re: Fragments Art Journal
Oh how very very cool!
can't wait to see the finished product.

Re: Fragments Art Journal
Brilliant idea - and the pages are spectacular.
Looking forward to seeing them completed!
