Samantha Taylor Kabila
Needlepoint is from a North Moroccan Beach town called Kabila. The
vegetation is typical of this region of the world. The town of Kabila
faces Spain over the Mediterranean - very close to the Straits of Gibraltar.
This area is not very tourist trodden which has protected the natural
beauty of crystal clear waters and untouched beaches. Skin diving friends
have found Roman urns under her coastline. On a clear day - you may view
the Spanish Coastline from this African Beach Paradise. The mountain range
behind Granada is a spectacular scene - as well as the Rock of Gibraltar.
If you ever plan to visit
Spain - do include a few days in North Africa. This enriches your concept
of the tremendous influence the Moors had in their 800 year domination
of a large region of Spain. Returning
to the towns of Granada and Cordoba - you will feel the Moorish Architecture
blend together with what you felt and viewed in Tangiers or Casablanca.
This canvas may be worked
in dimensional stitches mixing different fibers to enhance this
scene*s splendor. The flowers are very entertaining to interpret as is
the cactus. The mixtures of so many tones of green and blue green should
be worked on a small section first to insure the successful blending and
shadings. This close study of natural vegetation is one that you should
enjoy working.
