Art work: Mimi Spirits by Thompson Nganjmirra - Mimi spirits are nonphysical beings who have been present and active since Creation and are attributed to the Kunwinjku people, of Kakadu. This blog has been developed to display my work for the City and Guild Level III Certificate in Embroidery with Sian Martin of Distant Stitch and other interesting photos of Australia and inspirations from my travels around the world.

Black and White Shape Studies
I have created two shape studies in black and white. One with cutting the paper and the other tearing the paper. I focussed on different areas of the wall for these studies.
The one with cut shapes gives an interesting effect and the negative space could be used to for a base for an embroidery design. It could be viewed as a two dimensional work with the dark areas representign garden beds or ponds and the white could be a winding path between.
Some of the rocks in the wall were quite large with smaller rocks filling the gaps. These larger areas could be broken up with different designs and colours within one area.
