The yarn painting is complete! I used a photo I took a few years ago at the Great Swamp Sanctuary in Walterboro, SC for the model. I scoured through my stash of "specialty" yarns and found some interesting rug yarns and then paired them with some acrylics. For the center flower area, I used some dmc cotton threads and some small beads. My Art in Ed. teacher, Rachel Snow, showed me how to do cording. I used it as a way to show the veins in the inner flower area. I really liked doing this piece.
