Welcome to my blog!
I have decided to set up a blog to record my working days as a textile artist; new work, thoughts, experiments..........I have never tried anything like this before so here goes!......
I am working on a collection of work at the moment based on a day out at Yorkshire Sculpture Park in Bretton, West Yorkshire. It's a fantastic place to enjoy art and sculpture in wonderful countryside; and one of the few 'arty' places that I can persuade my boys to go on a weekend without the response, "not another crafty shop!", so it's a popular choice for all of us!
The image shown is entitled 'A Walk in the Park I' and is transfer printed velvet with screen printing.
The transfer printing has been going so well I have decided to add a pair of velvet shoes to my collection. The screen printed paper shoes have sold really well so I'm hoping these will be just as popular!
