Do you every take an idea and run with it? You love how you can take it further. And then further. Run, run, run!

I’m still playing with this seeing through idea. The backdrop for my fascination with how you see is this: I didn’t have 3D vision until my eye operation at age 3. Before that I saw everything as flat. And then, my eyes were fixed and my way of seeing shifted. Depth was visible to me.

Of course seeing fascinates me. Seeing through. Seeing depth.

I have so much fun playing with the concept. of depth.

In the colored hanging shown in 2 light settings above, It has obvious depth.

My most recent exploration for depth is this: I take advantage of how the brain works. For this, I choose an image that is recognizable (dog) The brain immediately identifies what it remembers and therefore sees. So I take the liberty to play with colors as they move and flow across the silk. 

I see the image emerge from the foreground and.wrap back into the background, made distinct by the cut line. It seems to carry a sense of dimension. It’s mostly created by the movement of color.                                                                                  

Peaches. On one piece of silk. One.

She seems to make sense, right?

SO SO SO fun!

That image comes from one of my new cards.

Coming soon!

Peaches, you need more snow on your muff to make my point!

But you got it, right?
