Just a quick post. This is a little panel – 12″x12″ which was an improvisation as part of my on-line art class. The starting point was to have a person, an animal and a plant. You had to change something towards the end which is why I put the little door on the tree trunk. I think it was a mistake and makes it too twee. Also find the figure rather derivative of the popular sketchy girl style. But it was fun and quick to do and I enjoyed making it. The dogs, I suppose, are examples of broderie perse where you apply something that you have cut out of one fabric onto another – usually to make the patterned feature fabric go further.
