The Musk Orchid can reproduce vegetatively and so it is common to find them in pairs, clumps and groups.

Researching a new piece which is to be hung in a Leicestershire church as part of a Festival of Angels.
The drawing is one I made in Canterbury Cathedral many years ago and the book illustration is from the Lindisfarne Gospels
No. This was not modeled after the artist's balding dome :)
This is a double chambered whistling vessel, a bottle within a bottle that includes a whistle structure beneath the mouth and beak areas. Wheel thrown and altered stoneware with several hand built pieces added, it stand approximately 12" tall and 16" wide.
The character is an intentional reflection and combination of ancient cultural pieces that function using vessels connected by a tube that allows the passage of air from one vessel to the other and plays the whistle.
once i settled on a basic design for the button i started making different types, to see what geometries work the best. I still haven't made the perfect button but we are narrowing in on something durable, consistent, and easy to construct.
mixed media collage works, in acrylic. I have been burning it up lately, and these are stages of works in progress. eventually i want to make time lapse gifs.
this painting lasted a little over a week on the gallery walls before someone bought it.
Le centre commercial
42° Sketchcrawl, Lyon-Confluence. Dix dessins réalisés entre 9h30 et 17h. Le premier dans le métro (la durée de toute la ligne!). Le deuxième au lieu de R-V : l'Intermezzo, café italien. Puis la passerelle depuis le sud, l'intérieur du centre commercial à midi. Puis le café à 13h, la passerelle et les cadenas, puis le cube orange, la boutique Joja. Puis terrasse vue sur les balcons décalés. Pour finir, à Perrache l'intérieur des archives municipales. Environ 18 courageux croqueurs présents!
600 drawings 4x4 2019, is the result of a drawing project — making at least one drawing each day. This project involved the use of four-inch squares of paper of various weights, colors, and surfaces. I found that many small pieces could be cut out of remnants of paper in my studio.
Year long projects help expand my vocabulary, they create new phrases and expletives. Join me to see the hundreds of drawings I made in this series.
I find it almost impossible to throw away scraps of fabric ( or paper come to that) and so I end up with boxes of the stuff.
These are the offcuts from my Brexit project ( the printed text) which I've free machined on to a background of quilting fleece and then bonded further scraps to the top.
I have no idea where this is going but it feels a better solution than just throwing the individual pieces into a storage box
I started this today, and if I am a good girl and stay off the computer, I can finish it tonight. :)

While looking for Purple Hairstreaks at Browndown near Gosport we came across this Emperor Dragonfly munching on a bee.
These are the main troops of my army, and this is my basic color scheme for the Adeptus Sororitas: Black armor and robes with white trim and red piping. Inquisitional and Imperial symbols are in gold. I'm a bit inconsistent with the Chaplet Ecclesiasticus worn around the waist-- I did some in red and some in gold. Oh well. I think the order will survive the oversight.
My first three-stage reduction linocut! Just the final black layer to go. There are a couple of areas I don't like on this but overall I'm pretty happy with it.

The start of a small canvas piece in the Women's Suffrage Series - forced feeding.
I am laying down a base coat here.
The right hand side has been gessoed, painted with acrylic paint and dyes and then overstamped with metallic paints.
On top of this I have bonded a layer of Bondaweb which I have then heated with a heat gun and then sprinkled with chunky embossing powder.
You have to do this a section at a time as you have to sprinkle the powder on a warm surface and then pat it down. When it looks attached to the base, you then zap it with a heat gun which causes the powder to melt.
I have overpainted parts of this with a mixture of metallic paint and lustre powder.
