Current colors of robe

Click to enlarge. The beads are just temporarily attatched and would not sag like that in final version. I like taking pictures of the pieces in process as I see them in a different way than just standing before the piece and looking. Here I like these colors but looking at it with my eyes I thought to change them again. I like the ragged edges too though perhaps it's too big. More to come.

Seeing the enlarged photo, I could enjoy the beauty and brightness of the colors...
It is really cute... the ragged edges add to this beauty.
What if the beads are worked in the big square?

This is gorgeous. It is looking a bit asian to me in the small photo. I am having problems this morning with dial up I guess cant get things enlarged or comments to take. But this is really really looking good.

The colors are great, I like the shine. You know me and ragged edges...bravo. Love watching the process of your works of art.
Excited to see what's next here.

thanks for the bead suggestion hb. I've played with the idea myself. They will be the last things I add I think wherever I place them. If I place them.

Cris the robes were originally conceived as kimono shapes. However now I call them robes as many countries have similar shaped robes and I wanted it to be more generic I guess. although a lot of my work in the past has had Asian tones to it either in the simplicity, the shapes or colors.
