Art covered journals

I have heaps of yummy Gelli prints, so what to do with them?

Of course I love collage too. So for the markets I made some
covered journals and little notebooks.

Each one is different. Some drawn in detail too. Printed from
real leaves and feathers.

Perfecting the pear

I'm hoping a Gelli Plate workshop will go ahead.

It's on at the local craft store. A card making workshop using the
Gelli Plate and a stencil. Plus some nice metallic paint.

It took a while to make the sample. The cat ran over the table and
tried to sabotage it too.

Pics for the O.S. Print Exchange

We all have to have our pics taken for the print exchange with the U.K.

One of our group took my photos, because of course I can't take my own.
The concept I had was to take shots in the environs of the art centre.

I baggs my favourite and historic Lilly Pilly tree out the front. Yes I am
a tree hugger!

Animal art

Here is a selection of animal portraits, and other animal-based artwork.

The collages are compilations of the print group's work, and found items.

A real bird's nest in one.

Thanks to Helen Sillar for the wonderful bird prints.

Bowerbird experiments. My sketches. 

The 'Indigo' exhibition, making an installation of blue. 

Drypoint and collage. Hawkesbury pelican.

A rough for a children's book illustration - Little Marie and the white doves. 

The background pic

This Blog background has to be tweaked. This is the picture used for it,
though that may change too.

It is from my Friday printmaking day and is a drypoint on paper that has
been prepared with watercolour first.

I have several versions of this same scene which I change by how I print it.

My art site.

This is a Blog about my creativity. It changes all the time.

I will display past and current works. Even items I produce for markets.

This picture is a pastel of the Hawkesbury River. It is based on one of 

my photos of Brooklyn.
