Canyon Roads
This wall hanging may have been one of my first design efforts using batiks only. The colors are pleasing and exciting, the free form design was very intuitive as I recall. I also used ribbons and yarns to delineate the outlines of each abstract shape. For added texture, I used some rolled bark that I took from an old necklace. This necklace was a gift from a visit to Russia but I hardly ever used it, so I sacrificed it for my design. I felt like the texture from the bark somehow was reflected in some of the batiks. Perhaps at the time, I didn’t have much else to choose from, so ‘necessity is the Mother of Invention’. How do you like the result?
