Reflection
Kathyann White achieves the effect of an abstract painting by placing fabric intuitively and without premeditation onto canvas and then attaching the fabric to the canvas with thread. White dyes most of her own cloth, sometimes one hundred yards at a time, and creates specific color palettes for each textile. In this example, she mixed turquoise and cerulean blue, hues she created with colorfast Procion dyes.
