text work



playing with text cut from a book, the book was about books written in the late 1800's and had bits of text in, I chose these not quite randomly but because I liked them :D then I took them and placed them in different orders to make a new paragraph or small story.

as the weekend snow continues

We wonder if the cold will leave us, its in our bones and in our hearts, it makes our eyes feel heavy and bed the best place on earth.

TELL ME YOUR WORDS AND THEY MAY BECOME ART

Do you have a favourite word or phrase? if so please share it with me for my research on text work........... thank you :D

and the work continues

after the text word had been woven on to the woollen background I decided to see Sam in print about doing a silk screen print of it, I thought the bobbly wool would look really cool, we were a little worried about putting the whole frame in the machine but it worked really well, on the screen you can really see the strands of wool behind the letters, so im hoping that the print we get off it comes out well I want to do smaller prints of just the strands as well ass the text.  I would like to scan them back in and work more on them with the other text im using.
