by a thread - on the wallby *AstridBruning

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / People

30 x 30 cm (10x10") Black cotton thread, acrylic background on canvas

Experiment just using thread. Let the cotton extend past the stretcher made it more interesting, and more obvious that it is thread (fragile)

Another Version using white thread

What did you use to have the thread adhere to the canvas?

*AstridBruning Sep 8, 2012

I used an acrylic binder medium, which dries very clear.

Just simply beautiful. And I imagine, as with most things that look simple this was not simple to do. What a super idea....love it.

thankyou for your wonderful comment, its actually very fidderly, but I love experimenting and I am going to explore it further.

The thread just flows and yet it looks tamed. I really like this and how it differs from an ink drawing by the little bit of thread that's hanging off the canvas. Makes me want to experiment with some thread.
