Bella Kaplan – Time #4
I am sticking to black and white, which I really like in portraits, compared to the intense color in the rest of my work.

Fifteen by Fifteen is a group of like-minded textile artists from various places throughout the world, we have come together to participate in an art quilt challenge. Our artistic styles vary, but we share a love of art quilting, the desire to learn and experiment, and most importantly share and grow. Every 8 weeks members will make a 15 x 15 inch quilt based on colour play or a theme. The results will be displayed in the Artists Gallery.-

FIFTEEN BY FIFTEEN 
I agree with your fabric joice of black and white. I only wish that you told us the story of this beautiful lady. Where was you? What you thoughts were? You look happy…
This piece is very striking and full of character. I like the fabric choice, the air in particular. Great stitching, lovely work.
A very nice portrait of you ! How old were you ?
Although I find very difficult to work in black and white, I must admitt that you do it with success !
I love your choice of fabrics. In this portrait it is clear that the years have passed in your life. Beautifully done.
Great choice of fabric and the placement on your design. A strong image, well done.
The choice of black and white really emphasises the photographic element of your designs. You have chosen great fabrics to give the light and shade in the face. Well done
This again is a beautiful powerful self portrait. The contrast in black and white and the textures of the fabrics makes it feel so layered and personal.
From your previous pieces I could not tell that they depicted you as I did not know you I your youth. But looking at this piece I immediately recognized the Bella I know. Well done and the black and white fabrics ar a great choice for portraits.
Beautifully done with a great choice of fabrics.
It is so nice to see you grow up. I am glad you stick to black and white. Great choise of the fabrics you used. I especialy like the partly squared background of the picture.
Another beautiful portrait made with great fabric choices from the black and white palette. Your choices have produced depth and texture.
I agree with you, I love the portraits in black and white, beautiful stitching and great choice of fabrics.
