Claude Monet (8)

Valentine card for my Mother---fabric paper, painted embroidered bird, stitching, beading couched edges
And "stretching" a definition: for Textile Tuesday, this is my "Monet" interpretation/inspiration, because of the colours!

Der Hintergrund ist mit Seidenmalfarbe angemaltes dünnes Vlies, das auf Windelvlies aufgebügelt ist. Das Ganze ließ sich sehr gut bemalen und trocknete unregelmäßig, dadurch entstanden dann feine Risse und Falten, was richtig gut zum Wassereffekt passte.
Die Seerosen sind mit Knopflochstich appliziert, die Wellenbewegung mit Glitzergarn nachempfunden.

Hier wurde Pelmet Vilene bemalt und mit Organza bespannt und nur leicht geschmolzen. Seide aufgeheftet und ebenfalls leicht geschmolzen. Effektgarne und gefärbter Mull wurden verarbeitet und mit Stickereien versehen.

I used 100% cotton sheeting (fairly thick stuff), standard anchor embroidery floss and Pebeo Setacolour Shimmer paints which I diluted so I could use them like watercolours.

Monet was certainly an artistic 'visionary'. In 1923 Monet had eye surgery to remove cataracts. These cataracts had affected his work, causing a reddish tone in many of his paintings. Monet claimed that after his surgery he was able to see ultraviolet wavelengths normally filtered by the lens of the eye! Some believe this extraordinary vision was responsible for the striking presentation of color demonstrated in his later works.
