CITY & GUILDS MODULE 3 TEXTURE SAMPLE 2 FOLDED PATCHWORK

My design source is this carving which I believe comes from a door. I drafted the design onto squared paper which I greatly enjoyed as I love geometric designs. Colours were introduced.
My artwork is monoprinted using acrylic paints to give texture. The shapes were cut out and built up as a mosaic to represent the folded patchwork. If you look closely at the photo you can see Patches' whiskers!
The folded patchwork was done using my hand dyed fabrics. I really enjoyed making this sample and I am pleased with how it turned out.
