Busy Creating

"Creation of something out of nothing

is the most primitive of human passions

and the most optimistic"

(Christina Stead, 1902-1983)

I've been enjoying the the time

spent indoors, during our cold winter

and have been just happy creating

I've been enjoying working with

fabric and vintage images,

vintage laces, doileys

and buttons

most of which are antique,

sometimes grubby, but if not

I'm happy to age them in a bath

of tea or coffee

I love the characteristic 'simplistic'

or tattered look

this type of art conveys

reverting to a time

when life was simpler

and the finished

piece can look as though

it was made generations earlier

The above are just a couple of photos

of my past art

will have new items coming soon

hope your week-end is enjoyable

wherever you may be
