Firm Matter

Concrete (from the latin concrescare) means grown together, and consisting of matter or something firm. Not exactly my favorite medium, but then I discovered these, and thought I'd share them with you.

































Aren't they interesting, to say the least? How do you feel about this material? Let me know in your comments!

About Paintings and Dresses

Closing my eyes
I dream
Of dreams with fabric
And paint

A world with
Color and shapes
Textures, patterns
Shadows and
Light
