This is my first time blogging, I have been encouraged to so by lovely people that think I should share my creative progress. Primarily I want to share the processes and involvement of my creative work here in my studio located on the East coast, a mile from the sea near the eclectic, creative town of Scarborough. So I thought I would start in sharing with you glimpses of my studio and the work I produce.
Feather collection ... bought, given and foraged from road kill. Its lovely when people leave them stuck my gate post for me.
Work in progress ... as you can see I use turquoise somewhere in every piece i do. Can't help it, Its a compulsion.
New painting started yesterday, I have about six canvases on the go at once. I am inspired by texture, colour combinations and patterns in my garden and surrounding countryside.
Little Hare Balancing Bird :This piece has just been delivered to Gallery 49 in Bridlington for their Menagerie show starting next weekend for more info click on .http://galleryforty-nine.com/events.php.
It is a small sculpture hand built in earthenware, mounted onto driftwood.

welcome to the blogging world, i'm not an avid blogger and have always had trouble expressing through words, so only blog when i have the urge. I do enjoy sharing the things that i enjoy with others and also seeing what other are up to. Don't make it a chore just blog when you feel like it x
ReplyDeleteoooo a comment ... how exciting! Thank you Bridget for taking a look. Don't really understand how you found me. Just getting to grips with this . Think its like making a snow ball.
DeleteHi Shirley, I saw your work on the Art Market website, and found your blog! I too am a mixed media artist who lives near the sea in NZ! I also have a large collection of driftwood, but find I get so precious over some pieces (esp if they have paint already on them) I find it hard to use them!! And I love turquoise too!
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you Sally . Thank you for looking at my blog. Just about to update happenings in my creative life over the last few weeks.
