silent soul (my hidden heart)

Where does inspiration come from?
The spark can come from a flower or a image but for me it starts with a word that turns into texture.

I have made a conscious decision to use less images in my work…
And allow My love of words and text to break through…

Through this fragments was born…

A mixed of textures and hues stitching and words with little tiny hidden elements to behold.
When you pull the red sting it will revel my silent soul.
five souls is the back side of my page.

This was created for Caren Mc Nee's spirit - book entitled 'in the spirit of the heart'

So where does your inspiration come from?

My inspiration comes from the knowledge that life is short and I haven't got much time to create and tell all my stuff.

As gorgeous as ever, but why I like your artwork so much is that their is such a spiritual depth to your work - maybe it's the text you use too. Interesting that you put the red string attached to soul. Our tradition/superstition really, has us wear red to protect our souls from "the evil eye". you are definately a very old soul Ruth.
