like a reincarnation

the seeds then hung to dry

fresh and renewed
into the new growth of spring

Catherine Gutsche

"On a Blustery Day"
27"h x 36"w, acrylic on canvas
$1500, unframed (to be stretched)

For me this piece was all about the wind and its interaction with the laundry. I am capturing the movement with hints of the clothing colours.

Karen Wynne Mackay

"Canada Day at the Cottage"
16"h x 40"w, acrylic
SOLD

This inspiration of mosaics was FUN! I loved the memories that came back of hanging laundry on the line at the cottage and that heavenly smell!

Sadly COVID has taken the fun out of cottages as well as Canada Day this year.

"Breeze"
11"h x 13"w, free motion embroidery on cotton
$150, unframed backed on natural linen

My interpretation of Kathryn Bossy’s mosaic is quite literal, I loved the swirly motifs that made you feel the breeze blowing the clothesline. Free motion embroidered swirls using metallic thread to highlight the motion of the swirly motifs. I used water soluble fabric to sew items for the clothesline. I liked the 3D effect.

$175, unframed, ready to hang
 
I embraced the whimsical nature of Kathryn's mosaic and included some old fashioned wooden clothes pegs in playful colours on my piece.
