Construction Triptych
I've finished the construction triptych and mounted it on the 1 1/2 inch deep canvas. The mounting is not finished, I need to neaten up the corners, and I think the piece on the right side looks a little off when following the line of the brown/tan beam, but I may be able to remount that a little lower without throwing off the upper black and white line too much. Conclusion? Very gratifying to work on, lots of design issues that were fun to work thru, and overall I think it works.

Construction Series continued
This is the third piece in the small construction series I'm working on. Since I've finished this one, I've moved on to working with a larger piece, a tryptic, which I'm figuring out now. I'm really challenging myself with this, because it's a lot more space to fill, and I'm having to look at the area differently. Sometimes I feel like I have too many choices in how to proceed. I know I want larger images, not a lot of small ones, but I don't want a lot of empty areas, so the fun, challenging part is how to make this work.

Starting Construction
I finished this first piece in the construction series I'm working on. It's 16 x 20, mounted on canvas. I started with a piece of screen printed fabric I made in a Benn/Morgan class. I added some more screenprinted fabric, some discharged fabric, machine stitched it, then painted it, then stitched it some more. I've got two more in progress, based on lots of pictures I've taken of the construction.
