.......and then inverted the image using Picasa, which helps to identify less apparent fissures in the surface. It looks rather 'cobwebby' and could perhaps be translated using painted bondaweb and papers as a base for stitch - or a heat distressed surface with embellishment. I'm very new to textile techniques, so my ideas are limited to things I have seen demonstrated, illustrated and/or read about.....but would love to try.
I also re-coloured both the above images in Word (thank you Sian - I didn't know you could do this!) with interesting results - but unfortunately can't find a way to transfer these to my blog. I will try a scan. The images highlight texture and raised areas and are helpful for that purpose, and also possibly for identifying shapes other than those which are immediately apparent in the wall, as defined by colour, form and the building materials used.
