This was a recent SAQA challenge in our local group, to create a piece anywhere on earth, looking down at earth. I chose The Great Barrier Reef, which I was inspired by photos from NASA, “Earth as Art”. The vibrant blues & turquoise are accented with lime green, beige, aqua and white. I embellished it with lots of decorative stitching.
