Balinese Dancer

This mixed media Pictorial Art Quilt explores the possibilities of "raising the surface." The relief elements are studies from a book by Maggie Grey. The portrait was painted on prepared canvas using oil paint, then cut out and appliqued onto the background. Materials used were: canvas, oil paint, plastic canvas, twine, PVC glue, tissue paper, oil paint sticks, foam board, peltex, beads and commercial fabrics.

  1. Judy, your work is very exciting. The Balinese Dancer and Oriental Collage are wonderful. Is this the beginning of a new "oriental" phase? Also, the Mermaid's Tale made me laugh and the Picasso fish was fun, too. I hope to see more of your work.
