Paint your Blankie! Moses Botkin Challenge June

Suzanne Berry chose our challenge topic this month: a bed sheet or a favorite blanket, shawl or baby blanket.


I have a beautiful silk scarf with gold metallic weaving that caught my eye when I was exploring ideas. Yeah it is really that green, can just hear Tim telling me to 'kill the chroma'! I coupled it with a book I purchased at the weekly market in rural France and a pair of reading glasses. I carried that book all the way home because my luggage was overweight. Surprised I didn't lose it in Minneapolis!


Drapery is a real challenge. Thanks Suzanne!
