Deep into a seminar on grant writing, pondering how I ended up in that room at that time, I sketched a quick drawing on my legal pad, juxtaposed with tips on honing specific aims in a grant.
Thoughts of wisdom imagery, of wisdom waiting in the town, up on the hills, at the door, welcoming me into a thoughtful life. Thoughts of life, of journeys, growing, new doors, and re-entering doors. Yet, always the possibility of the sprouting of vivid new life.
Don’t love how it turned out … used felt with batting, and have it pinned onto another piece of felt to ground it. But, it is nearly finished, and I learned something.
If I tried it again, I would make it more colorful and graffiti-like I think, but still with the seedlings popping. Maybe a traditional backing and binding? However, my goal was to try to make progress on a series of art quilts, and this is forward movement!
I love the little red seedlings on the grey and navy background! And the skyscraper tree is awesome as well. Plus, the tree looks very real. Nice job 🙂
