It is still inspired by Van Gogh and Kathryn Harmer Fox.
I used the seat in the garden at the asylum, by Van Gogh. On my frequent walks with the dog, I came across many bench seats in parks.
The image I used as my model is nothing like the Van Gogh painting, but the painting was still my inspiration.
I have continued with the technique we learnt early last year, from Kathryn Harmer Fox. I used lots of small pieces of fabric, loosely attached them and then did some heavier stitching to give shading, etc.
Once again, it is roughly 12" by 16", or A3 size.
I actually quite like the back too, except that a piece of fabric got caught up in it, not that it matters as it is on the back.
It has taken me a while to get it finished, not for any good reason, just that life got in the way. But finally it is finished. Now to get the four framed. One day.
