Kiln Smoke Rising in Quilled Paper Relief

A brick-red pottery kiln with a tall chimney beside stacked clay pots sends up smoke of coiled grey and lilac quilled paper spirals over cutout hills.

Prompt

Sculptural paper relief made from rolled quilled spirals, thick stacked cutouts and fine fibrous card texture. A village potter's kiln building: a rounded brick-red kiln with a tall chimney on a hillside beside a stack of clay pots, the smoke from the chimney made of grey, lilac and cream quilled paper spirals that coil upward and grow looser as they rise, with stacked cutout hills and cloud forms behind. Light: warm side light from the left makes every curled edge and spiral cast a clear dimensional shadow in a late-afternoon scene of coral, plum, butter yellow and teal against warm ochre, with the kiln mouth as a glowing butter-yellow paper cutout; the spirals of smoke are the leading line up into the sky. Richly saturated, tactile, handmade finish. Wide 16:9 landscape frame. No people, injury, disaster, readable text, signs or logos.
