On the Prowl 2022

 

This jacket is one of my most fun ones to date! I found this over the top genuine leather with pink lining gold foil trench coat at a local vintage resale shop.  I was inspired by a recent trip to Las Vegas and the over the top everything…. Siegfried and Roy and their white tigers and gold house seemed to call out to me.  The tiger is yarn couching, and it was a challenge to render a white animal with enough tones, shadows and highlights to read as white, yet have distinct perspective and layers.  Im pretty happy how it turned out!  My always helpful son took me to the local casino to capture a few really fun shots of this over the top jacket!

Exhibited by invitation at the New England Quilt Museum exhibit “Animalia”.
