Design Concept

For Tricuspid Biomorph #1, I resurrected a series of designs I drew in 1995, based on radially symmetrical hexagons.

I placed the hexagonal shape in a rectangle and played with it, extending the lines within the hexagon to the edges of the rectangle and tweaking them until I had a line drawing I liked. I turned the line drawing into a series of closed shapes and filled the spaces between the lines with colors and gradations in cool tones. I added additional shapes to make the design more interesting. I photographed a fabric which I hand painted and used the photographic image to fill the background shapes.
When I was satisfied with the design and colors, I did some additional playing with a hue function to reverse the colors to their compliments (opposites on the color wheel). I turned the second color variation into a square rather than a rectangle and had both versions printed in different sizes.
Since the larger design was delayed at the printer, I quilted the smaller, warmer hued piece first. It is quilted in dozens of different colors of polyester and acrylic threads. The backing fabric is from my Splash collection from Benartex.
