Finally feel I'm getting somewhere in my 'Mini- Moore' pieces. The difficulties are in transfering something of the quality of the solidity and multi faceted nature of the sculptures into a 2-dimensional form. Simplicity is the key. I've been looking at the drawings of Henry Moore to see how he tackled it - the next challenge I think is looking at line and shading in stitch to suggest form
Hi Mags, lovely to find your blog and thanks for your comments. I love Henry Moore too... did you see his sheep sketch book. It reminds me of FMEmbroidery as he drew with a continuous line.
