Lake Quilt Entry in the SMQ 2008 Show
This is the largest quilt in my series of 100 lake quilts.
#54/100 Lake (29"x 27") - 2008
My other entry in this year's show is "Let Me Take You to the Kasbah". That quilt can be seen here.
I succumbed to showing a bit of a reflected sunset to give a focal point to this large piece. I'm not ready to present full blown sunsets in this series. My intent is to present a mood ... a feeling ... in each of these quilts rather than "something" on the lake. That's why you've seen no boats, birds, nor beach paraphernalia. Here it is before I added paint and oil stick pastel work.

This looks just like an oil painting! Very, very beautiful Nellie...you should be proud.
Absolutely beautiful Nellie I am in awe of your lake series quilts.
wow! - the reflected sunset is great. i think boats birds etc would wreck these, IMHO.
WOW! I thought it was a painting when I first saw it. Beautiful.
the depth you created in this piece is incredible. Beautiful
Beautiful piece, Nellie.
This is my favorite of your lake series, the reflected light you've achieved is surreal. Beautiful!!
