Artist's "riff" off each other...

It's so cool to find another artist who likes your work enough to borrow elements from something that you'd done.  Kathleen Pulici is a seamstress and quilt-maker and she's made a masterpiece using parts of one of my Old Farmer's Almanac calendar designs (the mantis), which I am posting here. Dimensions are 18" x 18" and in addition to her beautiful applique'd fabric patterns and designs, Kathleen has added beads, crystals, and used colored pencils and gesso. Amazing stuff! Thanks, Kathleen!

Kathleen then won the second prize ribbeon in the contest. :) Way to go, Kathleen!
