Once again I've been neglecting this blog! I have a good reason though, I lost my camara which ment pictures of my work were a little hard to take! I've been painting a very large watercolour as a commission, and as I think pictures of half finished work are sometimes just as lovely as the finished article, I though you might like to see some images of it. Its taken two months so far. Its of fairies having a party...
Here are the mice looking on ...
The buffet table with butterfly ( you can see the unpainted sections here, mostly I'm leaving the fairies till last)
Another butterfly, some mushrooms, and some half finished fairies..
A couple of bluetits....
At the moment I don't have a full sized picture of it as its rather large altogether! ( I'll just let the suspence build up a bit!)
The problem with me is that I take on half a dozen projects at once, which means nothing gets finished! ( Well, actually I do tend to finish things, they must just take slightly longer!) So alongside my big painting, I have been doing several fabric projects, which you might like.
Here is my Cath Kitson style tapestry cushion...
A cross stitch I have entitled 'Watership Down' ( after re-reading Richard Adam's fantastic book, it really does have beautiful descriptions of the countryside)
And a embroidery cushion of a bluetit
Phew! As you can see I've got a busy few months ahead of me. On top of all this, I have been organising my artwork and getting some professional prints made up, so hopefully my prints will be listed in both my etsy
and Folksy shops very soon. They will be all absolutely limited edition, so please watch this space!
