When We Met on an Ocean of Dreams


This is another textile collage that I did for the most recent PRAS artshow. It's made from vintage materials, with exception of the fabric that the image is printed on. I felt that this one was telling a story of lovers. The antique crosstitched broach at the botton suggests that an exchange has been made. It's hard to tell from a photo, but when one first looks at this piece they see the writing first and then the image kind of pops out while your eyes are focusing. It seems to surprise people. It doesn't quite feel finished yet though. I'd like to add a little something to brighten up the top half. I'm thinking a few stars will do.
