 Net
Fishing by Priscilla Brant
The subject of this piece compelled me to combine painting and
stitching. These are the two media that I work in and there has been a
compelling desire to combine these together in one piece.
Inspired by the play of light on the fish scale lead to the use of
Opalescence and then the reflection of the glasses of the fisherman
demanded the use of a gold blending filament. The use of detached
knotted buttonhole allowed the arranging of the folds of the work to
show the folds of the net as it’s being pulled out of the water.
