Stepping back to move forward....

For my upcoming exhibtion I have been really uninspired, so I want to develop on one of my favourite projects from univeristy.

I want to further develop the use of used paper and my mark marking and stitch style.

Making good use of all that travelling

New work!

The work has began rolling for my exhibition in cheltenham, slightly uninspired at the moment so exploring different avenues.

For the final little bits of forget me knot I wanted to do some visualisations to show how it would work in both an interiors setting as well as an art setting......I was a little chuffed as I have a SERIOUS photoshop phobia!!

Forget Me Knot

The space is up, only a scatter brain like me could make an attic space in the studio!!

It's been a while!!

I do apologise, things have been a little hectic of late!! Here are a couple of my in-situ photographs taken at Green Park Station Antiques, thank you to the lovely man who owns it!!

Last minute Printing

Put in a very last minute order to have some of my drawings from my sketchbook printed onto canvas, ready to stitch and embellish....excited for friday now! They will make an exciting addition to my portfolio me thinks....fingers crossed!

Its time to put some new work on here me thinks, currently working on my degree show work taking drawings of mine into embroidery and mixing them up wit hold patterns and gems.

Clearing the Studios!

Todays the day the studio clear away must begin.....a year of fabric and papers needs to be carried home, think it may take a few trips!

All just Paperwork

A little blast into the past of work from last year, one project called "White Paper" and the other a personal project of portraits.

I got a slight addiction to sewing tea cups, even tho i dont drink tea! Teacups are my ultimate favourite thing!
