"Poppies" by Jean Schmidt
poppies_by_jean_schmidt 16 x 24.jpgJean Schmidt is one of my lovely students who asked for assistance to create this piece.  The design came from different pieces of artwork she had in her possession, pulling different elements off each one that provided interest for her piece.  The background was "painted" in my dyeing studio after deciding where we wanted the colored highlights to land.  This is only Jean's second piece, so I am tremendously proud of what she has created.  Good job Jean!  (16" x 24", linen backing, 100% wool strips)
