Hit or Myth

Painted cotton, discharged cotton and commercial and African printed cotton.
Not a fan of this theme and never came up with a good subject. I was going with Daphne turning into a Laurel tree but then I was going to have to use a realistic head, hand or foot. I prefer the abstract right now and my head just couldn't get into drawing a foot, head or hand. It felt wrong. So the little play on words. A hit or a miss. This would be a miss and a myth. I continue to struggle with the size of these pieces. 12 by 16 would be proportionally more pleasing to the eye. And I don't think the extra 4 inches at the bottom helps the design here--at all.
Such great fabrics and I love the strips mixed with the yellow circular shapes through out. One of them looks like a lemon. Surely there is a myth about a lemon from some culture. Love the title too -- clever!
