Playing with Colour

This piece is simply me having fun with colour and getting the feeling of having a paintbrush back in my hand.

Abstract, call it what you like. I love it because of the freedom I felt in doing it.

It is done with acrylics on gesso primed canvas. 10"x12"

ACQ Patchwork Challenge

Our challenge here was to make a wallhanging or quilt measuring no more than 36" square, using stripes and circles with the dominant colour being purple, one secondary colour and a neutral.
This is the result of my effort

I did keep closely to my remit though did add a few little embellishments, namely three butterflies and various buttons and beads.

The machine quilting in straight lines running in all different directions and a cm apart was something I hadn't done before. Also finishing off the edges with a facing rather than a border.

This piece measures approx. 36"x24"
