Lambent jitters


This is a wall-hanging I made for my sister-in-law to make up for forgetting to make her a birthday card last year. It was inspired by a vision I saw briefly of reflected street lights out a bus window one night when we were visiting her in Colorado. I knew that it would be abstract as I was planning it, but I didn't realize how far it would go from what I saw. Her birthday isn't until next month, but I think I can count on her not seeing this blog entry. Hope she likes it.

Hi Kate,
I love the way you used the fabric to depict the lights at night. I guess we share that thing about lights having an aura at night. Was it Goya that painted them that way? The wallhanging will surely be treasured.
