Description:
Artist Statement: "I have long been fascinated by the transparency and colors created by thin layers of watercolor paint applied to paper using the veil painting technique. To translate this technique to fabric, I challenged myself to take a collection of fabrics in various shades of turquoise, yellow, green, and orange and arrange them to emphasize the overlapping circles within the design, while also moving generally from light to dark across the quilt. The pale yellow quilting lines gently show against the white background, and the design is accented with four neon yellow spiral quilting circles. Watercolor Eclipse is the second pattern I've published in this series of quilts."
