Genevieve Guadalupe – Decay #5
Fall is in the air.
I always welcome the sight of the Indian Summer, with it’s array of beautiful colours such as yellows, oranges and reds. The colourful leaves floating in the air and falling to the ground creating a beautiful carpet of colours. It is such an extravagant display of the beginning process of decay.
Materials and technique: repurposed cotton fabrics, tea bags, real leaves preserved, printmaking, cotton batting, poly thread, embroidery floss, cheese cloth. Intaglio and block printmaking, monoprints, preserving of leaves, machine pieced, machine quilted, hand embroidered.

Autumn colors show beauty before decay …
A great addition to your beautiful series. Lovely colors and the dense quilting greatly adds to the beauty of this piece.
This is a great use of not only color, but also of re-purposed fabrics. I particularly like the hand-stitching on the right. It adds visual interest.
What a beautiful continuation of your series. Your fabric choices and techniques reflect the colorful fall colors and your signature dense stitching is perfect as always and brings everything together. Love it.
