The Marbled Windows series was conceived in January of 2023, when I pulled out the eight panels from 2017 of my first experimentations with marble dyeing using prepared for dyeing (PFD) fabric and Proxion dye exclusively for my own artwork. Marbled Windows #1 is the first of three wall artworks using three of these marbled experimentation panels as the focus.
The densely hand stitched design, using white and pink threads, was created using the geared drawing tool, Wild Gears. An image of the back of the artwork and a close-up of the textural stitching shows the extent of the meticulous hand workmanship done without a machine. See the Aged Psychedelic series, created in 2019-2022, which was my experimentation of marbling fabric using airbrush paint and my first use of the Wild Gears tools.
Installation of this piece can be in either a vertical or horizontal orientation. A brief video about the artwork can be viewed on my YouTube channel or by going to the Video page of my website.
