I love the ocean, and all it offers. There are so many hidden treasures that we don`t even know them all. When life gets to me, it is the peace of mind and body that the warmth of the water, the soothing sounds that comfort me. If I could choose what I wanted to be in my next life the sea turtle is what I would pick. Too float along the waves, diving deep, and then resurfacing to the warmth of the sun. aaaahhhhhh peace!
That is why I chose my subject.
The film showing the changing moons with the eggs under the sand, and then the wondrous sea turtle emerging from them. I used real 35mm film on the reels, crocheted coloring for the border to remind us of the colors of the ocean.
I like this one very much Tammy --- your piece is very well done and I like the way you used the film to give it a 3 d look. This is very very good. Shirley

Sea turtle eh! I think you may be too warm blooded, as I see a lot
ReplyDeleteof warmth here for this subject. Lovely piece.
Love everything about this, Tammy! The sea/sand colors, the film/reels and crochet edging. Such an original interpretation!
ReplyDeleteTurtles are great creatures. I like how you have used the crochet edging and the film for the 3D look. Very clever.
