Weekly Art Project: Week 27

30 March 2017 Filed Under: My Surroundings, Twelve by Twelve, Weekly Art Project

Lorikeet in the banksiaFor Week 27 of my Weekly Art Project I am revisting a familiar theme. Some of you may recall that I set [rainbow] Lorikeet as the palette for the Twelve by Twelve International Art Quilt Project Colourplay challenge.

These bright coloured birds feed on the banksias outside my window studio and entertain me with their antics. They never stay still for long!

All those saturated colours make a tricky colour scheme. I tried to add some respite with a textured blue hand-dye. It was fun to play with this colour combo again.
