I've just finished this fabric painting using all tiny bits of fabric and thread painting. No actual paints were involved. I used slightly larger bits than in my previous paintings since this one is a close up shot of the flowers. I wanted a dramatic piece so I used photoshop to manipulate the colors. I first sketched the basic outline of the flowers and then underpainted sections to help identify color areas. I used misty fuse to adhere the first layer of fabric bits to the background and then added tulle over all when finished to capture the loose bits. I then thread painted over the tulle to add definition. I've also include a couple of in process photos.
