Pomegranate sewn paper


Did you know that the Pomegranate was a symbol of the resurrection in european paintings as well as the inspiration for the development of the grenade? Two such different connections!
Whatever. It is also my son's favorite winter treat. I try to pick one up for him with every trip to the grocery store. In this piece I've sewn together my grocery receipts, lists and food source stickers to decorate and enrich the visual potion of this juicy red fruit.
10 x 8 inches.

  1. Hello,
    I love our pomegranate artwork — it's great how you incorporated all those bits and pieces, and came up with something so lovely!
    I wanted to thank you again for tagging me. It was fun to do, and as a new blogger, it pushed me to reach out to other bloggers — which isn't always that easy for me to do.
    Warm wishes!
    Nancy
