Water Colour Sketches, Collages & machine Embroidery Updates on Etsy.

Woken up to a very foggy day, so Molly and I are waiting for it to clear a bit before walking out. We are turning into fair weather walkers in our later years!

My Etsy shop looks nice and bright and full of exciting art creations. These are the latest additions.


Machine embroidered, layered and collaged - Aunt Phyllis 1937 


1930's Water colour & pen sketches.







Collages with many layers of glaze & paint too. 



I sold several of these at the Pop-Up Shop.



Stitched Collage in paper.

2012 was a very productive year for me. Another lot to list today, looking at the weather I think that will be my main task.

Update on the Retro Divas - I am working on a pattern, instructions and kit to launch for these. All the fabrics in the kit will come from vintage and reclaimed sources. So no two dolls will be the same.


The girls are very excited!!!

More Art for the Pop Up Shop

Hopefully going to drop some more work off at the Pop up Shop in Chelmsford.

Three collage and Mixed Media works on canvas on the 1930 fashion theme.

And this one is a bit off the wall, on a very textured deep edge 8 x 8 canvas.


15 Adaptors - enlarge it for a better view :-)

Every item came from a different source, S Z Sakall was a Hungarian character actor 1940's - 1950's.I've used Clear Tar Gel to make a mock glass in the watch face. Why I collect this junk I don't know and where my head lives sometimes, well I really don't know either. But it's art and I had fun!!!
