I can't deny that I am having more fun than ever making my quilts on panels. I love the construction and minimal quilting, just enough to set every shape off. I painted this panel with shades of turquoise, green and a tad of black in the mix. It becomes part of the whole composition this way. 
And black has become a part of my repertoire but in a more subtle way, often mixed with another color to mitigate the intensity. Not to mention gray and white! How did I live without these neutrals? ha!
So glad to see you adding black to the composition. I almost always add black to most of my art quilts. It just seems to make everything else pop. I love them both.
ReplyDeleteI love the shades of blue and green with the pop of black and white. Julie
ReplyDeleteMelody, how do you mount your quilts on the wood panels? Thanks!
