which one


i found a photo several months ago that i really wanted to try and make and this is it. i got permission from the photographer to use his photo. i feel that i could have done better. i don't like the face. my favorite is still lawrence fishburne and whoopi goldberg. this picture is 17" x 22". i enjoyed this challenge for myself. i don't care about trying to do 100 portraits any more. my challenge is to just challenge myself to do more and better. i know as i do more there are going to me times when i am going to ask myself which one do i like best. first, it was my grandson, toni morrison, whoopi goldberg, michael jackson, lawrence fishburne and now this one. but i must tell you my favorite is still lawrence fishburne. so enjoy.
and stitches for now

Wow Sistah, I like it, I like it, I like it. Is it fused or appliqued?

Oh me oh my. that is incredible. And I agree with you, Lawrence is probably my favorite portrait that you have done, however, this one is close to knocking him out of the number one spot. Keep up the great works. And thanks for sharing, you are such an inspiration.
