Work Ahead

by Fran Skiles

Mixed media on cotton, photo transfers, machine embroidery, applique and quilting.

Shredded fabric represents lives torn by Hurricane Andrew's path. Somber colors reflect the absence of color that was so characteristic of south Florida. The work is a collage created from painted and printed fabrics.
