Depending on my focus, they "trade off" receding and coming to the forefront.

I was more interested in yin and yang, not that what I am doing communicates the opposites!Linda Hickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10622069411237073813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7829354056212202313.post-2333020856639158972012-09-21T08:51:37.750-07:002012-09-21T08:51:37.750-07:00I continue to be amazed at the wonderful effect of...I continue to be amazed at the wonderful effect of transparency that this quilt exhibits! I remember reading about transparency in one of my quilting books--I think in COLORPLAY by Joen Wolfrom. But I don't recall that her explanation of how to achieve this effect mentioned what you've done here. Perhaps it works because of using colors opposite on the color wheel? I really like how the square spiral contrasts with the curves of the spirals in the two fabrics, too. AND I loved the way the bright pink (magenta?) echoes the reds used in other of the MM quilts. When you look quickly at the composite, it is interesting the way yours pulls the eyes in first, and then my eyes were drawn to other quilts with reds in them. Not that I didn't go to each one eventually, but that describes my experience of looking at the mosaic.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01193658783135430973noreply@blogger.com
