Sedona interpreted in felt

Sedona by Jane LaFazio 2010 (11x12")
I've only been to Sedona, Arizona twice, but those red mountains, the textures, the culture are so strong, that I've done a number of artworks based on Sedona. And of course, I love this color scheme and end up adapting it to every culture!

This piece started as a single piece of felt that I created, using the wet felting method. Then I cut it into pieces, reassembled it, and stitched and embellished the heck out of it.

(I'm in Italy, teaching, so I've scheduled these posts while I'm traveling.)

    Gosh and I dont even know where Sedona is but Im guessing its richly red sand with ancient symbols on rock face walls?
    (Will google it in a minute and see if Ive imagined that or not lol)
    But I love the textural, rich surface youve created here!

    Was just there a couple of days ago! A good friend of mine just moved there. I will certainly be back since I'm in Phoenix AZ and it's just a couple of hours away. Not only are the rock formations beautiful and inspiring but Sedona also has some very lovely art galleries. Jane, I LOVE your felted pieces!!!
