"What shall I wear today - who am I?"
This final section shows a woman as a voter ( at last).
I have made it out of pleated shot silk and ribbons with added computer designed text. It is covered by a plastic dome which has the effect of ageing the sentiment.
Mixed media - less than 1 inch high
I found this old canvas when I was looking for something else in my attic.
It was part of the Ada Lovelace series, but in the end I rejected it as too bland.
So, I have now decided to recyle it and as you can see I have pulled some of the motifs off the canvas and I have painted over the rest.
The first layer was black gesso, then dark red acrylic and a bronze acrylic layer on top.
It now awaits another layer of black acrylic.
I just love painting over stitching and fabric and seeing something new emerge.
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!
While looking for Purple Hairstreaks at Browndown near Gosport we came across this Emperor Dragonfly munching on a bee.
Tiffany and the Ice Queen, the coming of the Ice Queen bringing winter and the Nac Mac Feegles join Tiffany in herding the sheep. Of course attempeing to run of with at least one.
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
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.

I started this today, and if I am a good girl and stay off the computer, I can finish it tonight. :)

I don't asked Janet but hope she's ok !!
There's no sticker on the frame. Letters are resurfacing (Sablage) on polish aluminium.
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
