Diptych still life

This piece came about through a workshop led by Stewart Kelly

First I made a still life drawing. Then I used a view finder to look for two interesting parts I could use. It was like looking at the still life from different perspectives!

These two views I tried to capture in textile, for one of them using only embroidery and for the other adding appliqué as well.

They look quite interesting together, so I sewed them onto one background. 

I very much enjoyed the thinking and exploring that came with this work!
