Photo Fabric Art Billie Holiday 15 x 22 1/2 LADY SINGS THE BLUES

Description

The images you are looking at are made from cotton fabric! No paint was used even though it looks just like a painting. To begin the process, a photo was scanned into the computer, a pattern was created, batik and hand dyed fabrics were selected and fused onto a lightweight tricot using a mini iron. Original photo is for comparison only.

The process takes 80-100 hours for a size 15"x22" and sometimes the pieces are so little (1/4") it can fit on you fingernail with plenty of room to see your nail! Ask me for the individual dimensions for the art.

The fabric selections seems to be the key in obtaining the painted look, even though I like to think that I have a little talent! Have a photo? Personal commissions welcomed.

The image is shipped rolled in a tube. When you open it, you can iron it flat by placing a piece of cotton fabric on your ironing board and also over the image and press (not iron) for a few seconds on cotton setting. It is now ready for framing. Select your choice of photo priced separately and $7.00 shipping.
