Almost Touching

"Almost Touching" was created with hand painted pieces of silk, organza and archival paper. After designing the image, all was re-painted, then hand embroidered and machine quilted. The resulting art quilt is an original fiber art wall hanging. Paper is protected with a coat of acrylic matte medium. Digital transfer imagery is created by the artist using cropped sections of her original paintings and drawings or photographs. A sleeve has been sewn on the back to facilitate displaying by hanging the piece from a rod.
