Deep it Glows

Deep it Glows

2018

48" x 71"

This quilt was part of RJR Fabrics "What Shade Are You?" Blog Hop. My idea was to explore pattern repetition within a mirrored form defined by large areas of negative space. The area of repeated pattern varies in color, and plays with shade and tone. Drama occurs through color changes with moments of depth and moments of pop. The resulting design suggests something glowing from deep under ground, perhaps emerging, bursting into the world.
