As Ada Lovelace was a mathematician I was searching here to show some symbolism in stitch.
The samples are based on a calculator keyboard and have a base of machine stitching on a felt base.
The top sample is burnt with a soldering iron, the second uses fabric paint, the third had an enamelled symbol heat treated on to it, and the fourth had foil, heat applied to it.
mixed media collage works, in acrylic. I have been burning it up lately, and these are stages of works in progress. eventually i want to make time lapse gifs.
I took a quick picture tonight - while it was snowing again! - as you can see, there doesn't seem to be a lot of difference between the blue and the black but I think I will leave it as is. Happy with his eyes, they remind me of him.
Close up of the painted calico circles sandwiched between two layers of printed tissue paper. The resulting "fabric" is rather stiff, but still workable
I had a total art day today, gonna have one tomorrow and the next day too. My whole house is my "studio." Messy, crazy, OMG, Mr. Dylan is now singing my favorite song....what's a sweetheart like you dooooooooing in a dump like this.....anyway...you know what they say---tidy desk, untidy soul.
Grease Alley, an industrial backwater neighborhood in a blade-runner/fifth-element genre. These shops back onto a trash and old parts-strewn gully, where the junk skiff comes by to pick up broken components, industrial leftovers, and the occasional "borrowed" part.

This is a tiny 6" deer skull I found at a shop. Covering it up with tiny tiles. Plan to give it to my father for Father's Day to put in his "man cave" where the computer is.
Next will be the vanity and floor....the 44th U.S. President will be inaugurated before this room is officially stamped "DONE" :)
Tyranid Carnifex & Capillary Tower. I've not yet glued down the minature plastic tyranid terrain on the Capillary Tower base. I intend to get some greenstuff and create some ropey vines/tentacles surrounding the base of the Capillary Tower to give it a higher "ick" factor. This Capillary Tower vs the previous photo shows the addition of a spine ridge on the largest Tower, and a smaller tower without spine ridges. In progress.
Another section of the embossing powder - I have stamped into the melted powder whilst it was still wet
