Pelican Watching the Sunset

I have been working a wee bit every day on this tapestry.  I wanted to finish up the plain  weave before I start the wedge weave. i have a pelican in the foreground with the ocean right at that point in time whne the sun has slipped below the horizon.  Here is a WIP shot... the loom makes it tough to get a good angle of the front.  You're missing the pelican's feet and the post it's standing on...

Looks small ... 40 inches wide and 12 inches tall so far...

Finally I have reached the point where the wedge weave will start.  I will be having strips of wedge weave going up the tapestry using various permutations of wedge weave to see how it works under different scenarios.  That is the next stage - defining what I will do in each strip.  The strips will continue to almost the top where I will finish off with plain weave tapestry again.   In the middle where the blue stops is the horizon line; above which there will be the most luminous sunset my yarn will allow.  Well, that's the plan...

Next WIP photo should be when everything below the horizon line is complete.   How I get a straight horizon line with all these different permuations of wedge weave is another puzzle to figure out.
