Negative Paintings

For my last sketching class we talked about negative paintings. I love things that are painted by surrounding the positive by painting the negative. We worked on a negative painting technique with is both challenging and fun once your brain gets around it. You add layers of color underneath the previous layer and you can create some wonderful paintings. I am now turning these into quilts, excited to see how they translate to fabric.

Absolutely beautiful. I would think these would make excellent designs for fabric. I would use them. Wonderful. Thanks for sharing!
