Mosaic butterfly

This mosaic is done on a shaped piece of  MDF . The top picture shows the design and the other photo shows it grouted. It's ready to hang - but I may (one day!) create a floral mosaic background for it to hover over.

 Please email if you would like to buy it before it goes in our November exhibition.

Boots

Work in progress.

I do a lot of welly painting as planters - but this is an experiment to create a hound from several pairs of wellies. Fun - but maybe this is just a one off!

Batik giraffe cushion

The giraffes are in batik, cut out from their background which turned out too dark - I've stitched them on to calico. The "mount" is also batik cut from a different piece of artwork. The back of the cushion is calico. I'm getting ready for our Picturesque exhibition and sale of work in November (details nearer the time). This, and the other items listed this month, are  for sale - please email for details.

Trio of soft furnishings

I've been busy this last week catching up on all the "makes" I had promised myself to do. I bought this gorgeous material in Africa back in February and have made a noticeboard, a cushion cover and a lampshade.

These are made from a floral remnant showing some lovely seed heads. I'm delighted with the lampshade - first time ever, from a kit.

 

Ayton Art Exhibition

My thanks to the lovely people who chatted about my artwork this week, but special thanks to those who have given my pictures a new home. 

 

Mosaic owl box

I've just finished adding a mosaic lid to this hinged wood box. The photos show progress from the initial design to the finished box.

I'm going to list it for sale on eBay at £15, so please email me direct if you would like to give it a good home.

 

Ayton Art Exhibition 2019

These are my entries for the local art exhibition, plus some boots and wellies which  I've painted and planted up to augment the flower vases.
