What a creative woman! If you are not familiar with her, please take some time to research and learn her story.
I was in Dallas in 2018 to visit my cousin. The art museum was on our list of things to do. Lucky me! I was able to see Kusama's work in person.
A few years ago, while mall walking, I came across a display of her handbag work:
I had every intention of sharing each day. Obviously, it didn't happen. Now, I am back home with a refreshed soul.
The only food left in the house for an early breakfast before hitting the road. Good planning!
I almost felt guilty cutting up this little dress. The smocking and delicate stitch work was precious.
A few years ago I rescued this plant from my son. He was letting it slowly die. Thus was not going to happen on my watch!
I recently moved it to a new location and observed it each morning while drinking my coffee. Until now, I didn't realize that a new leaf opens lime green, then slowly turns a darker shade.
With my sewing machine in the shop for a cleaning and check up, the background is in the waiting stage. I am beginning some collage design work and made the decision to cut up the dress.
The dress was white to begin with. Using avocado pit dye, it is now a lovely blush.
Someone spent a long time constructing this sweet garment and I want to document the details.
