Love the way you always combine the textures and colors- this is so beautiful and that arrow is the perfect finishing touch! Wow, Mary, coming to your blog each week is such a treat for me. The turquoise colors you use are MY colors (meaning that's what I look best in!). This piece is beautiful. I am aware that the line coming down toward the bottom center is there to put balance in the design. I am so impressed with you keen eye in that regard. Thanks for visiting my blog. 01/25/2013 10:02am
Love this peek, Mary. You have such a gift for layout,color and layering! no way to go but up!! i like that. Lovely piece! would love to have one of these in my living room :D if I ever have an art buying budget I'll let you know. was just thinking the other day of how tired I was of seeing my own art up on the walls and how nice it would be to see someone else's, especially with a radically different style - maybe an arts exchange... anyway seeign your piece made me remember that 01/25/2013 1:43pm
I agree that the turquoise line looks like a meandering river or stream. Beautiful color and composition. Happy PPF 01/25/2013 3:09pm

Love your work -- great texture and use of color. I love the blog, too, and that your are featuring fabric artists. I recently did a self portrait/poem with a map. Now I'm collecting some to use in the future. You're a great inspiration. 01/25/2013 7:54pm
