A long way after David Hockney! by allsop

A long way after David Hockney!

Laura, @la_photographic, challenged me to make "a collage in the style of artist David Hockney where he does a photography collage of one scene comprising many photographs" so here is at least an attempt. Not very good I know, the white spaces jar somewhat.
@la_photographic Laura I had so much trouble working out how to do this! First I tried a landscape, that didn't work I couldn't line the images up; next it was a bookcase which was better but then I thought of this embroidery. Well I suppose it sort of works but after working on your challenge for many hours each day since you challenged me I felt like pulling my hair out, fortunately I haven't got any to pull out!!! I learned a lot about collages, post-production and not least about myself. Think I am going to lie down in a darkened room!

Such a pretty sampler. Sounds like a challenging challenge!

This sounds like it was a lot of work, the result is very pleasing

@kjarn @wakelys Thank you for your comments, the sampler was worked by my wife Beryl many years ago and it is very special to me.

You did an excellent job. This style is time consuming and more difficult to do than I expected. Did you or your wife embroider the original sampler?
