Prairie Moon
Here is the very basic starting point of Prairie Moon. Taking a picture is so useful. Already I know that the moon is too small, and that I need to make another one--about twice the size. No, this one isn't on permanently. The only further changes will be to do a lot of FMQ'g to turn the chaos into prairie grasses. The only thread that seems to blend in well, is grey! Go figure! I had picked out pale lemon yellow, but it was just too strong against the navy. I'll have to play with it a bit, but I may have ot use dark bleu to define the grasses and then the grey for texture. The pale lemon yellow may end up being useful in the very highly discharged areas. I have a feeling that there will be some crystal beads along the edges of some of the blades of grass, as well. It's a good things that I have a "doodle" cloth to try things out on.

I immediately thought of a grey scale painting of white hot flames when I saw this. Love it. Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.
