I set up the front doors for the casket. I gave the window space a light blue wash and the walls a beige. I started stitching the floor. I love the checks but this type of floor is much too grand for the workshops of Claire and William.
But the turning point against this background was when I discovered I drew it 1/4″ too short!
Plan B.
First I made the doors the correct size. Good plan.
I decided not to color wash the background. And I didn’t draw the straight lines of the shelves and windows before mounting the background fabric. I will trace as I go.
So here are early drawings of William’s and Claire’s workshops.
And the templates I will use to construct their figures.
Templates for the heads too.
Meanwhile I have been stitching little details to add later.
Flower pots for the window sills.
And the views outsides the windows.
Wow can't wait to see these evolve, stunning!!
it all looks very intriguing indeed!
Thanks Maree.
how I love following your progress on your amazing projects
