Peacock Cape
This piece was inspired by two things, my love of peacocks and my love of peacock tones of colour. I hand painted calico with a wash of fabric paint, then created a peacock feather stencil to create the "petals" for the cape. The cape shape was created following my discovery of the "Peacock Cape" sold at Christies a few years back, where each peacock feather has been hand sewn using actual peacock feathers as embroidery thread.
