The Last IQ Test by Cynthia St Charles
From the Tyvek Gallery
Size in inches: 34 x 39

Price: $850

This piece is was inspired by the art of Freidensreich Hundertwasser and was motivated by a bad day at work. The surface image (face and spiral) was painted on Tyvek® using pigment dyes. This was laid over a pieced quilt top and layered with batting and backing. After machine quilting, the piece was ironed, causing the Tyvek® to melt slightly, creating an interesting surface texture.
