Artwork Description

Some of the pictures in this series involve the re-configuration of existing imagery and so it is with this picture. Essentially it has been collaged and sewn together on by hand an on a sewing machine. The result is a deeply romantic dream like fantasy. This painting is one of a series in which I was experimenting with breaking the conventional manner of framing a watercolour within the matting so that some components of the work pop out of the matte right to the edge of the frame.
