I too am a big fan of his work and have used it as inspiration for quilts (still in the mind :-) But I never thought of using it this way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9567735.post-1170287046225028662007-01-31T18:44:00.000-05:002007-01-31T18:44:00.000-05:00I agree Klimt is the greatest!!

Just wonderful.

Admittedly, you could have explained all this before, but I've been out of it for a while. <BR/>When I work small, I want the thing to look huge and when I work big, I want the work to be full of detail so that it somehow has an intimate sense about it. Maybe you are just thinking too big because you have to make it a certain size. Think small and just make it bigger. I'm so deep. When I read my own suggestions, they frequently sound idiotic. HA.<BR/>Many smooches.

Although I never worked "small," I did work larger last year to meet minimum size requirements of some of the shows, and I've found that it's hard to go back smaller. This may be the begining of something "big" for you!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9567735.post-1170097131468611772007-01-29T13:58:00.000-05:002007-01-29T13:58:00.000-05:00Ah, but it's good to be forced out of your comfort...Ah, but it's good to be forced out of your comfort zone periodically!
