Sewing a Face (and some AI art)

One of my AI artworks is being used as an inspiration for an art quilt.   I am excited to see it coming along.  I spent part of yesterday evening creating the background.
It isn't perfect but it will look great when it is finished, I think. 
A few days ago, I had cut out the head shape from black fabric.  There is a lot of black in the head/face of this so I decided that I would applique the colored parts over it rather than try to sew tiny pieces.
The pin tells me which side goes up. 

I used a paper template to cut out the shape.
I think it worked out pretty well, so far. 
Here is the original piece:

Some of those colors will likely be changed in the final work. 

Now a new AI piece for the Friday Face Off
This one will NOT become a quilt because there are far too many tiny pieces. 

Happy Friday.

A couple more AI pieces

Here  are a couple of images that I created using AI on Night Cafe. If you are interested in trying this, you can use my referral link. Gene’s Referral Link.

First up is a Trio I created. I asked for the style of Kandinsky, I don’t think this seems a lot like Kandinsky.

Next is an image that I created using AI that I am thinking of using as the inspiration for a quilt.

I think that he would fit nicely in my gallery of quilted faces.

Sorry it is such a quick post. I am taking care of Mom full time for a couple of weeks.

Friday Face Off July 11

I am posting this on July 10th for Friday July 11th.  For this Face Off I am sharing a couple of old family photos in remembrance of my sister, who died in a medical tragedy many years ago - and also my father who died in 2011 (fourteen years ago.)  

First up is my sister.  This is one of her school photos. 

Next up is my Dad. This is picture is one of the earliest ones I have of him. I am guessing he was an early teen in this photo as I don't see any signs of facial hair.  
You may notice a strong family resemblance in these two.  
I think I don't look "just like" either of my parents but I look like both of them in some ways.  I have been told more than once that I have my father's walk.  I also have a few of his facial expressions. (for better or worse.  LOL) 

And just for a more cheerful photo,  here is one of me at a cooking class in Cancun. It was an excursion that we chose to do . I have to say that it was a very fun excursion.  We cooked, ate what we cooked, and then had the run of a day resort at the beach (open bar and more food - if we could bear to eat anything else. 
 
We took this photo before the class started. My pan is actually empty.  
I have to admit that this was years ago, but I still wear that shirt.
