When I didn't find a quilt I went back up and was in awe.

I have not been to Machu Picchu--would love to go. I have been to the Inca ruins in Ecuador and like the other remains of past civilizations I have seen, they are haunted and haunting. Your piece depicts this beautifully.Terry Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16650965451863656517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519632209878236029.post-76457995333228765882008-10-01T19:49:00.000-07:002008-10-01T19:49:00.000-07:00I gasped when this came up on my screen, Karen. T...I gasped when this came up on my screen, Karen. This is definitely my favorite of your pieces so far. It has a mystical quality to it -- the image fading into fabric that others have remarked on. It really suits the subject matter and makes this piece reflect a sort of spiritual richness. It's really masterful. It's clear that you are using your surface design techniques to excellent advantage.

You capture "The Lost city of the Incas" exactly how it is. Well done!!

You have done a fabulous job of combining fabric and photo so that it is hard to tell where one element starts and the other ends. It shows the artist's hand rather than just looking like a picture printed on fabric.

You know I love the complexity of your work and this piece does not disappoint. Those lovely and delicate sky colors juxtaposed with the ruggedness of Machu Picchu is wonderful.Gerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06292762162661584206noreply@blogger.com
