Au Natural




Au Natural.



thread detail: head.


thread detail: spine.


This piece is a stretch of raw canvas reaching about 3' in length and about a 1' 5" in width.

Interested in keeping raw materials preserved, I used sharpie to begin the base drawing and used
 a stain-painting method to fill the necessary spaces. To finish, I used thread to highlight areas 
of interest to control the focal points with subtle delineation.
