Paintings - designs of everyday tableware

These paintings were part of my final painting assignment for a unit in the Diploma of Tapestry course I am studying by correspondence from SW TAFE (see link at right)
Distorted-cutlery
The detailed designs in this painting are influenced by my love of Australian artist, Richard Larter's paintings.


I enjoyed designing and painting these designs as the cutlery, dishes etc looked as though they were dancing.  I tried to make the overlapping parts be unclear as to whether they were in front or behind.

Hi Ruth, does it feel good to be finished for the year??? I am going to Warrnambool tomorrow to go to my Graduation. I hope to catch up if you go to Halls Gap? I may be around early that week but have other thing on later in the week so I will be away. Enjoy your Christmas whatever you are doing? Deb.
