An Unexpected Visit from the Ghost of Art Past

While in the midst of working with some dimensional fabric paint on graph paper, this idea from my past crept into my head and smiled at me. Very curious indeed! I made something my freshman year of college which relates to this concept, but I was never entirely happy with the piece; it seemed unfinished somehow.
My new take on this old idea has the added benefit of allowing me to sew wierd materials on my sewing machine (always a decided plus). I've come to the conclusion that as an artist, my main interest is with using material and especially finding ways to use nontraditional materials in ways that make the viewer ask me "what is that". When people are puzzled and intrigued by what I've made, I've done my job (and I'll be beaming from ear to ear).
