new work!

Some songwriter friends I know have recently married, and this work made me think of their beautiful and musical marriage!

The work seemed to discover itself, and makes me think of Em's golden hair and dreamy nature, and Harry's happy and warm vibe, so I hope they like it!

framed work!

newly framed work for the lovely lyn and peter - one of these days i must get some framed for myself - they are hard to hand over hehe!

look what i found!

another work lurking in the archives!

who knew it could all be so colourful?! oh the joy!

look what i found!

this is another 'cut-out' work - i found it in my archives!
apologies for the tiny thumbnail, i will rectify soon.

if you click on the image and zoom, you can see all the lovely collage detail and little hairs on the cat! tee hee!

this isn't really a work that i planned - i spilled one of my ink bottles by accident, then realised it looked like her basket was smoking! (Some kind of euphemism there? hehe!)

Spiral Brain. paper, thread, fabric and pen on paper.

framed work!

The lovely Brigid was kind enough to allow me to photograph this work on her wall. So nice to have a work 'finished' in this way - stay tuned for other framed works! (There's a few on the go!)

I am stuck between two titles:

(fruit-buds that whimper).
or
fruit is a lie!

Both made me think of this work. Isn't it just ridiculously cute? It's silly really, how cute it is.

beanman!! (or actually i think it is peas ...)

new work!

I finally had my patience tested with this work - it has taken me days instead of hours, and many tweezers, broken matchsticks (for the gold dots!) and pawing through numerous books to find the 'right' jewel for the masked cat's royal dress - i can't think of what it would be called (let me work on that).

This work was a huge challenge for me but i think it was worth the hard work! I love the diptych (these are two separate pieces to be shown together) and the relationship between the two.
