...and I hope that everyone has a creative time in 2012!
Well...2011 was quite a year for me...
...with lots of wonderful and amazing things happening...
...and opportunities presenting themselves around every corner :-)
There were also some health issues lurking around in the background...
...but, hopefully, we'll be over them soon.
2012 is getting me all excited already!
There are so many things that I have lined-up to do...
...new products to get out there...
...a new body of work to be done (a lot larger than I've done before too!)...
...and new paths to explore.
Those of you that have been visiting for a while will know that I have a fascination for all things "tribal" and "traditional"...
....and this is set to continue, but with visits to places hitherto not visited.
Here are a few pages I'm working on in a "re-purposed book"...
...an old copy of "When Jays Fly to Barbmo"...
..with pages glued together, covered in gesso and then tinted with walnut ink.
The edges of each page has been whip-stitched with hand-dyed thread.
A suitable book for a study of Sami drums...
... with bits of mythology and poetry too...
I've no idea whether any of these will ever end up as a textile....
..or anything else...
...I'm just enjoying the journey....
