In the beginning, I made a pretty straight forward interpretation of the painting,
but I wasn't happy with it. This is part of the cannibalized first effort.

Then I made this.... still not what I wanted

I decided that I really wanted an abstract... out of the box representation..

I decided that I really wanted an abstract... out of the box representation..
so I came up with this... I call it Fragments of Matisse, or Views from a window.
It was hand pieced, hand quilted and sent to Laura.
Hope she likes it!

This is lovely! What a difference from the first one!
It really gives a feeling of windows in a most original piece. Your colors really work!
I like the way you used the painting to produce something that was different. Very effective and a beautiful piece.
