Description This is a work in progress of a piece I'm working on for a juried show.

It's a pretty interesting show, work can be on any medium but the actual artwork has to be at or under 7 inches. Here is the link if any one is interested: [link]

This piece is: dyed abaca, timothy hay, abaca with dried carnation inclusions, and abaca with seaweed and recycled kozo papers. All made by me

I think I will draw something in the black thread circle...I was thinking of a close up of a really spiny caterpiller.

As always thanks for looking!

Hooray! So glad you like it...I think this works better compositionally than a caterpillar.

no it wasn't evil enough...I don't people to think I've went soft. Besides, nothing says evil like a great big centipede

What about a giant big scorpion? I mean, they're scary. Unless they're fuzzy, like my old pen and ink one.

Oops I forgot to mention I also used white cotton crochet thread, and black cotton sewing thread.
