J'aurai aimé avoir des coquelicots et étonnement je n'en avais pas! Par contre les couleurs du pendentif de Suburban Girl Studio m'ont semblé être un bon point de départ.
Ensuite, j'ai essayé de rendre la délicatesse et la finesse des fleurs et j'ai opté pour de la soie recyclé.
J'ai du mal à travailler avec les tissus et je n'ai pu m'empêcher d'ajouter du métal et des pierres pour donner un peu de poids.
J'ai donc fait et défait pour arriver à une disposition qui me convienne.
I wished I had poppies and surprisingly I don't. Surprisingly, because in French Coquelicot is poppy.
But I thought the colors of this ceramic pendant by Suburban Girl Studio would be a good starting point.
Then I tried to make something that would give the feeling of the delicate flowers and I chose some recycled sari silk.
I find it quite difficult to work with fabric so I couldn't help adding some metal and stones to give some weight.
And I had to do and undo until I found a satisfying arrangement.
so pretty I love your work
RépondreSupprimerThe design looks dense yet light - a lot like the painting. Great job Karin
