This piece is part of an ongoing series in which I am exploring the range of values from darkest to lightest and the effects that they have on each other and on colors that may be present. The colored weft threads, being half the thickness of the warp, bring subtle, yet significant depth. As I weave these pieces I have time to think about the metaphors this brings up and the lessons that can be learned from them.
