New fabrics

Today, I quickly printed some of my dyed fabrics for the Kilauea 12x12 quilt. I used black fabric paint and did some monotyping.
I don't like the last one, but I might nevertheless use tiny pieces of it in the quilt. I am still thinking of using Hokusai's work as inspiration.
I was at the British Museum last week. Unfortunately, my favourite Hokusai's prints were not on display. But I was really impressed by the new Great Court and I fell in love with the Assyrian wall sculptures from Nimrud.

Oh yes! Of Hokusai's work shown in the link, I really like "Dragon of Smoke."
