Landscape    

Divergent materials was the prompt for the day - I have a box of "interesting materials" that included a couple of pieces of wood with unusual grain. I found these in my son's mulch pile. The opposite of these rough, textured, hard pieces would be something soft, smooth, shiny - Satin! I also have an assortment of fabrics left from my banner-making days. So I combined these into a landscape of sorts. This was an interesting project. I'm amazed at how these simple tasks make me more aware of everything I come in contact with during the day. I'm finding a smoother flow of ideas for subject matter that I hope will result in some more substantial art...in the future!
