\"\" Not about to quit with the puns.<\/p>\n

You may have seen me working on this during the Minnekhada Art in the Park Festival. \u00a0After a vacation (yay) and a bout of flu (not yay) it’s finished!<\/p>\n

Yay!<\/p>\n

Do you think maybe I’m quite happy I’m done with the flu?<\/p>\n

Anyways. \u00a0Back to the illustrious history of this piece depicting a view of Burrard Inlet from Rocky Point Park. \u00a0Boathouse diners a year or so ago may have been amused to see a perspiring me running to catch this sunset on camera before it was too late. \u00a0I continued the theme of indignity by hunkering down on the muddy ground to make sure I got some foreground grasses in the shot.<\/p>\n

This one was quite painting-heavy as you can see. \u00a0There’s a little bit of machine sewing and then I did mostly hand-sewing of the grasses. \u00a0I also sewed some grasses behind the silk that are meant to show through the silk, mostly to mess with the logic I usually follow, of keeping close-up details physically closer to your eye.<\/p>\n

Next piece is quite different from this one in all sorts of ways, so I’m looking forward to getting into that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
