It has been too long since I have been able to play in my studio. I have been cleaning it for a challenge and because I couldn't find anything in it! But although I am not quite done, I let myself play yesterday... and this is the result. I have been thinking alot about my sis who has been undergoing some nasty testing this past couple weeks. She is a musician, and loves nature.
The hand is a photo transfer on flannel, and is reaching for the bell. The bird was a find at an antiquing expedition with my sis, and represents freedom. My hope is for her freedom from serious illness.

I REALLY like your piece, Kim! Lots of fabric and chatchkies--and you made them work together wonderfully! And all the best for your sis!
Wow, this is really cool. I'd love to know where you find all these neat things to use on your art! Many positive thoughts and good energy for your sister.
Great piece Kim, what a wonderful way to honor your sister. Sending good healing thoughts her way, no one should have to suffer!
Making this for your sis was so thoughtful - I'm sure she'll love it and appreciate the tribute so much. I can appreciate your feelings too , since my sister is a breast cancer survivor - it was a rough trip. You both have my best wishes and prayers.
OMG this is awesome...I love the bird...

love this Kim and I know your sister will too. Best wishes for a finish to the testing and good results.
I love how each of these elements could be taken apart and made into a completed piece. Very much the way Beryl Taylor would have approached this and why I think it is so perfectly combined. I love the transfer onto flannel and the way you did the plastic/glass over the girls especially.
Beautiful piece. The transfer to felt is wonderful.
Best luck to your sis.
Great piece! I just love the bird! and your Beryl Taylor samples are beautiful, the pictures here are so much better! I don't know what your sister is going thru but I send my best wishes and healing thoughts her way and yours for being there for her.
Kim, I just realized it's your sis who's ill. My prayers are being lifted up for her. Your piece is so lovely! Wish I could just see it in real life....great texture! I just added you to my blog roll.

This piece is gorgeous, beautiful, and meaningful. I love everything about it -- the composition, the colors, the images, the bird, the bell, the lace, and especially the loving message. I will be praying for your sis and for you. May God bless both of you.
