High Fiber Diet Show


I have entered 2 art projects for the High Fiber  Show at Arts East. The first is a wall hanging called "Change of Heart". It has nine squares with a variation of heart or love, such as;  black heart, broken heart, purple heart, tough love, envious heart, chicken heart etc. Art is supposed to make you think. I thought it would sell for someone's cubicle.
The second art project is 'tie dye'. I used parts of silk ties on a pillow and put another plain cloth on top of it, rolled it up and boiled it in a pot for 20 minutes. The result was an echo image that I used for the backing of the pillow. I thought is was too muted to use for a front but I liked the effect. Art is also trying new techniques.Iwon't know until next week if they were chosen for the show or not. The website for the show is http://artseast.org on the right is listed the high fiber diet exhibit where you can find more info. I seem to have more time to finish the little projects.
