For the first time, and over a year ago, I signed up for a class at Craftsy.
I thought I would begin the class when I had the time.
Silly me. I am old enough to know that there is never any time, but the now. Right now.
So I have begun, and I am enjoying the class very much. Thank goodness Craftsy classes do not expire! This is turning out to be a very good experience!
The class, Painted Pictorial Quilts, is taught by Annette Kennedy. Annette is a photographer, pattern maker, fiber artist, painter, traveler and teacher.
This is the calla lily sampler that I am learning to paint with. I am using Pebeo Setacolor transparent paints. The background and lily fabrics are my own hand-dyed fabrics. The stem and leaf fabrics are commercial batiks.
This is the sample after I have painted it.
I must say, I am pretty pleased with myself!
