These pieces were concertina folded in the cat litter tray. The dark stripes came from a dark blue that I applied quite thickly. It didn't move a great deal. The piece above is the front.
Above is the reverse.
This piece was also concertina folded but got less of the paint. Above front.
A couple of my friends have made suggestions about where I might take these marks and forests have been suggested. I think the first two pieces do suggest woodland to me and I've just remembered I did a watercolour painting once of a bluebell wood and some of the shapes are reminiscent of that so I may think along those lines.
Whatever you're doing this weekend have a good time and hoepfully enjoy some fine weather.

More beautiful and inspiring fabrics. Each one is a great success and you will enjoy using them.
What fabulous prints, I love using ferns & feathers, too. These 'forest' lines are just wonderful....carry on!
I am not jealous, oh no not me.
These are gorgeous Julie and they are definitely suggesting trees.
Lovely pieces Julie, my first impressions though were of tribes women moving through a heat haze. Just goes to show how differently we all think, and isn't that a good thing. Have fun with your works of art.
They came out great. I kind of like flipping them vertical and writing in between...xox
Oooh...bluebell wood sounds good :-)
But I also like Corrine's idea.... xx
Love these sun-dyed pieces - what a fantastic range of effects you got with them!
