Working on this landscape.  As with all my felt there is a deckle edge.  The golds/yellows picked up the darker color from the backing so it wasn't as yellow as I thought it would be.  Felting always offers pleasant surprises!

In the midst of creating this week.  Working in more rolling hills and countryside.  I hope to complete some flowers and perhaps some of the scenery from our hikes in the old growth forests of the Northwest.   I always seem stumped until I begin applying to create and then the painting seems to take on a life of it's own.  I do need to find a way to keep my finished product in a rectangular shape.  It is much easier to made reproductions in standard sizes.    Keep an eye out!!!   I will be publishing photos as I go.

Starting to create.  My goal is to complete 35 new pieces at minimum before summer.   It is a stretch! I simply must get more work completed.   I am delivering 1 piece to the University Hospital in January for a Show and two pieces to the Wisconsin Regional Artists show and competition in Prairie du Sac also starting in January.  There is another show in February.   These pieces were completed this fall.  I was able to achieve the detail I wanted in the wool without needle felt.
