Night Vision: Quilted Art Wall Hanging and 12 similar items

Night Vision was my response to a challenge with the theme "The Eyes Have It!" Setting out to do this challenge, I looked up drawing an eye in a "how to" book for the basic shape. The original picture was in pencil, so there was only dark versus light -- and the dark seemed to prevail in what came together! The "eyebrow" is from a fabric scrap from a costume project I did this winter, which had a grey floral border on black fabric, used for a 1910's mourning dress, but the curve seemed right for an eyebrow. The red of the eye came from another costume scrap. It doesn't show very much, but above the eye I used some navy blue as "eye shadow". The netting and a bit of thread painting created the shading in the upper part of the eye. Size: 14" x 19" My artwork is mounted on foam core, which creates a light-weight but rigid piece with a wire for hanging and a felt backing. It is treated with a sun-block spray, although prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may eventually cause fading.
