Yet another 'moth' piece, this one is 'Moth and Bird'
Above is the piece that had the white moth. Well, no more! I decided to colour it in, and knock back the background with paint and crayons. I much prefer it now.
This is something that I started about a year ago, mostly stitched by hand. I've finished it off this week by adding a little machine stitching, and appliqueing some standing stone shapes, so of course, it's now called 'Standing Stones'.
Three more brooches, which I'm also hoping to sell.
I feel as though I'm on a bit of a roll at the moment, probably partly because I had a break from being creative while my daughter was here for about 6 weeks. It's also a form of therapy for me so that I don't miss her too much!
Maybe still a few more 'moths' lurking in the shadows, so apologies if you're not as fond of them as I am!!!
I love moths so really enjoy seeing your pieces. Have you seen the work of Annemieke Mein? Lovely to see you being so prolific and I'm sure that the brooches will sell easily.
ReplyDeleteHi Maggi, I love moths too, and I have seen the work of Annemieke Mein, but I've not looked for a while, so thanks for the reminder of her beautiful work.
DeleteLovely work Cath. I particularly like Moth and Bird. They'll fly out of the gallery if you put them up for sale.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tessa, I've put four up on the following website, http://galleribba.com/ so I'm hoping for at least one sale on there! I may frame a couple up for the Corner Gallery at Christmas.
DeleteLovely pieces and gorgeous colours of the brooches.
ReplyDeleteThank you Amanda.
