I am realising the meditative quality of stitch and this is a small meditation.



I have been invited into an exhibiting Art Group called Athena here in Newcastle and we recently had an exhibition. I made small abstract stitched pieces looking a lot at Smart's work.






How time flies


So I had a week where I painted, it was short lived but this looks better in the photo than in real life

Sunday, September 18, 2016



It is 3 years since I last blogged a short time, I guess, in a life time but my life has changed so very much that I want to share what I am doing now.This is some old Japanese silk I dyed with pomegranate.
I have returned to India flint and begun that journey again.


 Jude Hill of "Spirit Cloth"is a blog I followed for a long time, and my joy in discovering her online classes, has been great and I wanted to have a platform to share my textile moments.

 The photos at the top of the post, are at the end of my small lawn. It is so very tranquil and beautiful but not a lot of sharing ideas and work. For that I miss my Melbourne life and friends.
Another great influence on my recent work has been Junko Oki.This is my first adventure.

and again...


Talk about tardy blogging! I am still studying at Uni , the study period was about "colour" so I put together this collage, the other connection was colour in our neighbourhood.
Most of the paintings are from the past and no longer in my possession




Just easing myself in gently...
