THE VERY RICH HOURS OF SUMMER 

Wool warp, hand-dyed wool weft
38 by 65 inches, $2,200


This closeup shows the texture of the weaving and  the interactions of the weft colors. The background is actually very narrow stripes alternating multiple shades of tourquoise blue and a yellow-green, yielding a rich texture of color as well as physical surface. (The green can be seen by itself in the "haloes" around the floating squares and rectangles.) The floating elements are also composed of multiple colors in varying combinations.
