A Lady in a Swim Suit - Sort of....

 

So.... this is the latest drawing from the class.  Done with pastels in bright colors.

It is a casual quick drawing but I liked the way it turned out.  

I decided it would make a fun small quilt so I started playing with fabric (my favorite thing to do).

I overlapped the pieces slightly so that I could carry the lady around and see what she looked like on various colors of background.
 




 To mimic the original drawing I tried pink and blue.   The facial features are not fused yet so don't pay attention to them too much....

Or maybe purple???
Or maybe just pink??


Or what about black?  Colors always pop against black...






Or blue?  That looks like water and she is in what could be a swim suit.....

What do you think?  I think my decision will be based on which color makes my lady stand out from the background the most.

Keep in mind that no sewing is done yet so she will be much more defined when the black lines are added.
