I may actually cut a chunk off of the left side and rearrange the whole composition. But I like where it's going. This is such fun. My end products never come out as I expect in the beginning.

I'll have to work that out as I work with the fabric. I think the rock cairn will be okay once it is in fabric (I hope). As for the pillar and doorway... All that is just background and not really any kind of object/s. I'm hoping to get it to all blend together using sheer fabrics or paints later on. One of the scary things about showing works in-progress is that they don't look as they will when finished. Another scary thing about it is that they may end up to be failures. Time will tell about this one.

I don't know if you wanted that as a pillar, I am just saying what my eye sees. I really like the monk being in the doorway that I see. <br /><br />The rock pile bugs me. Is it the focal point you want to use? Maybe since it is not yet in fabric form, that is why it stands out wrong to me. Right now they look more like an afterthought that is just sitting there...again, probably because they are 3 dimensional instead of 2 dimensional.<br /><br />Oh and #2 having the larger sun/moon there makes it look like it is casting an odd shadow below it.<br /><br />I am no expert and am just sharing what I see.

I didn't notice that when I set up the background. But since the background fabrics are already sewn in place, I can't flip them, too. I'm still playing around with Photoshop with the relative sizes but I like the 4th composition the best because of the monk in the part that is glowing and the rocks in the "path". Thanks for visiting and commenting. <br />Regina B Dunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14377568746998756667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667082763150478419.post-83538516833520579582013-07-27T12:48:22.511-07:002013-07-27T12:48:22.511-07:00Hi, Regina.

However, the last one seems more interesting because it's a more unusual position, right to left. Kind of gives the viewer a moment's hesitation when "reading" the piece.<br />best, nadiaMulticoloredPieceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161913409399066123noreply@blogger.com
