Winter's Light

Winter's Light
This hand-embroidered piece, of which we see a detail here, began as a sketch in watercolour pencil of the mountain ridge, seen from the house, as a sudden flurry of snow fell from the gathering clouds.  The sketch was scanned then transferred  to organza by inkjet printing, method used to further layer the piece with aspects of land and sky as heavy clouds broke to reveal crisply etched ridges under the pale, cold winter blue.
