CWB- experiment 4 weaving with transparency


We have been experiencing BIG snow this past month, lots of shoveling. The world around me is muffled beneath layers, slowly disappearing over time.

Perhaps that inspired this thought...

What if I were to layer the pattern with something gauzy. To reduce it with the weaving?

This is my first experiment with it.
Light blue gauze layered over the makiage pattern.
I learned a few things here. The contrast of the shibori itself is a very important design element, And a pale background makes a difference in the visual weight. I will be back to this one.
