I am just stunned by the lovely detail in the flower flags. I wish I could see this in person. Can you explain more about the backgrounds and the three dimensional part of it? It's hard to see. Did you paint the fabric backgrounds? Use dyes? Sew and stuff or just bead? (Just bead...as if...). Love, love, love it!
I start with photos I've taken on my frequent walks, the photos need to have a good ratio of details and background. I then print the images on china silk.
I use a variety of beading techniques, bead embroidery, netting, peyote, fringing, etc - whatever will capture the texture properly. Not all the pieces have 3-D elements and some have many.
Thank you so much to everyone who has shared comments, I really appreciate the feedback. I have many more ideas floating around in my head and I'm encouraged to start the attempt to bring them into creation.
