April - 2005 - Starfish
8.5" x 11"

Starfish is part four of the series of five. It is about feeling lost in space and being in the wrong place. It is time to cut our losses and move forward. We are looking for a planet (or in this case, a school) to call our home. I experimented with tyvek, fabric paints, beads, and cotton craft thread. The fish are 3D quilt pillows, satin stitched around the edges, and stamped with metallic paint and half an apple to make the star shape.
