So the second challenge has been very difficult for me. My mind could not let go of the arch of the horizon. I automatically thought 'curve' when I read about the second challenge in #pq6. So I spent over a day just searching google images, hoping for this weeks muse when I found an epic image!
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'.
Me modeling the headband. Sadly the writing didn't photograph well.
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.
ThanX~ Kaz
