Mon from Aus.: This piece begins to show Kaninsky's flare for surrealism, and example of that being in the disfigurement of the Bride's gown.

Cherry: I love this piece, the bride (being covered with white) almost blends into the background, while still, at some extent, standing out with such a radiant beauty.

I first saw it on a calender and was determined to copy it hooking rug style for a wall hanging.Done in hand dyed skirting bought from charity shops. It actually only took me 3 weeks.
