Gayle's Challenge 4 - The Gods Must Be Angry

Finally - better late than never. I chose to create a background with the blue and purple and make a statement with the orange fabric.

After all that has been going on in the world - uprisings, earthquakes, tsunamis and nuclear accidents - I decided that a lightning bolt from the 'heavens' would be an appropriate subject.

The background is fabric collage. I made the bolt dimensional and it stands out from the background a bit. For the binding I used my attempt at a Susan Carlson technique with assorted scraps glued in place.

  1. I like your take on the challenge, the statement it makes does fit our times . I tried posting a comment when your work came up but must have missed some step so will do it again. Margaret
