My piece is called "Ocean Girl".
It was inspired by the eight or so years living very much ON the ocean. from the age of 18-26 my work took me to various coastlines of the world. While my mailing address changed every month or so to whichever post office we were docked closest to, the one constant was the sea beneath me.

The colours are all tones found in and around the sea...kelp green, med and carib blues. The turquoise was hand dyed, all the rest were remnants from my knitting basket at home.

Melissa Wood, from 2nd year suggested that I construct sleeves, and make it into a wrap. I feel it is apros pos as I have felt quite nurtured and surrounded by the sea, since I was a girl.

Oh, Kimberley, it's gorgeous! All my favorite colors are in your beautiful creation. It's wonderfully original. I'd love to see you wearing it in person. I'd just plain love to see you in person, anyway.
