"Zoo Blooms and Cockatoo" is my third art quilt. Created after a tour of the Cincinnati Zoo tulip display with my husband and son. The bird was a separate photo which I loaded into my computer and then printed it onto fabric. After trimming the extraneous background, I fused it onto the previously fused fabrics. The black and white image is the back of the quilt which shows the machine quilting better. The next image is a close-up of the stitching on the quilt.Marilyn Bishop’s Art Blog features watercolor on paper, using monotype, rice paper plus collage and experimental techniques for social commentary, spiritual themes, typical images and more.
