I’ve been working some ideas out in small wool ‘sketches’. This is a great way to experiment with shape and colour and texture. These are not the best photos as it is very overcast and snowing here today!
The first is based on a white oak tree ring, the second on the memories of my time in a village in Spain this time last year. I like the repeated pattern in both pieces but not sure where either will take me. I’m going to try another version of the houses and colour blocks and see if I can work out what I’m not happy with in this first one. Maybe be more organized and methodical in my overlapping pattern? Or maybe fewer houses? I’ll try out some drawings this week. After all with snow on the ground, it’s a perfect hooking time.
Such lovely bright work !!! They will brighten up any dark day !
