A blog about making art and other things using cloth, paper, paint, colour, stitch, and all sorts of exciting techniques, some of which I'm sure I still have to discover! I hope that the joy all this gives me is visible in what you can see here.

Cards for Father's Day, and a totem tree!



The Corner Gallery asked me to make some Father's Day cards, the results are above. Hopefully they will fit the bill for any dads who enjoy sailing!



I just had to take the photos of the tree above whilst out walking with my grandson last week. It was a beautiful tree anyway, but apparently dangerous, so has to be taken down. It reminded me of a totem pole with a unique beauty of it's own. I expect even this will be gone when I next go walking there! Shame.




Just a small boast now. The two pieces above which I also had in an exhibition at The Corner Gallery have been sold! It's so thrilling when you find out that someone loves your work enough to purchase it!

    Congratulations on the sales, they are both stunning pieces. The cards will be great for Father's Day too. I love the tree. It doesn't look as though it belongs in England.

      Thanks Maggi, I know what you mean about the tree,I think it was a Scots Pine, but the really blue sky gives the whole picture a mediterranean feel doesn't it!
