The second I layed eyes on this a new phrase replaced 'curve' and that was, "In the begining!!" Can you even imagine how our creator pulled the cosmos into motion and set off the chain reaction that we now know as one day? The sun set and rose. One day. This embodied all that I love about science, astrology and nature!!! Glorious!
My next task really threw me around. How could I convert this into a 2 dimensional piece of art? I really did try. Alas, for me, I could not quilt this. So instead I settled to interpret the curveof the Earth in the curve of my cranium!!
My resolution was to make a headband using what I call my starry night material I have been using as a back ground on a hexie quilt. I appliquéd one golden hexie onto it for the sun and embroidered the rays along with one word, 'Dawn'.
You can barely make out the DAW in dawn on the left portion of the headband.
I have decided to entitle this project 'Dawn of Creation'. I hope it conveys the majesty I have in my heart.

This is absolutely wonderful! i love how you followed your piece instead of vice versa ... fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThank u!
DeleteIt is fabulous. I am a science junkie as well and I think you captured it beautifully. I loved reading your thoughts about the creative process as well. being a grammar geek, however, may I point out that you spelled interpret wrong. Probably just a typo, but I thought you might wish to fix that. Kudos on a job well done for the #pq6!
ReplyDeleteThank you for pointing that out!!! Better you than my mom :) LOL. I should proofread closer before posting. I have a few spacing errors as well!
