This is on a much smaller scale, the black fabric measuring around 11" x 18." I added batting and allowed it to extend beyond the image. The graphite plays well against the black ground, and I am considering mounting my large panel the same way. Reflecting back on the crit and some of the comments, I think I will keep the panel flat so the movement of the graphite is more easily "read." Waving the panel is probably redundant since there is already a visual flow. I could use some feedback as to whether I should mount the panel on a black fabric ground.
