More bracelets

Just a few more bracelets….

 

Textile jewellery

I am sure I am not alone when I say this;

I have any number of projects on the go at the moment.

But I have become distracted with making textile jewellery.

I was deep into my stash of Japanese fabric looking for something with a bit of colour when I found this little packet of lovely meisen silk.

Lovely colours so I just needed to make a few necklaces and bracelets….

As luck would have it I might get to teach a couple of workshops using just a few scraps and some nice buttons….

 

Oh the joy oh Drawing

 

Nick Cave, in his newsletter, ask his readers what gave them joy. 

He was overwhelmed by the responses and so has created a page on his website so we could all read them.

What a joy it would be for me to be able to put a link here 

but maybe when tech support arrives I can do that

Last week I attended a 6 day workshop with Deb Mostert at Grampians Brushes.

Yes for the time being you’ll have to search that as well.

It was pure joy!

Live clothed models that we had sometimes 2 minutes to sketch, sometimes 5

Lovely.

What gives you joy?

Women on the move

 

I don’t know why I only just thought to do this recently, putting my “women” on my tea cosies. 

I am quite pleased with them. Women on the move seems quite topical at the moment 

A newish video

 Let’s see if this works.

I am in an artist collective and the skill set of one of our members is film and television.

He made this short video 

 

Let’s see if this works?

Mid winter stitching

 

It’s midwinter here in Australia.

Heading to the shortest day of the year but there is still a bit 

of sunshine

so I’m taking every opportunity to sit by the window and stitch.

CLOTH AND CLAY

 

There is still time to catch this collaborative exhibition of my textiles 

and three ceramicists. 

I am really proud of how it has all come together

So why not take a drive down the Great Ocean Road this weekend and say Hi!

I will be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday
