This is both about growing colour quite literally as plants in my garden and also about using them. I dye fibres with natural dyes and use them to "paint" with. This is how I make my landscapes , mostly of the North Wales countryside
Mae Tyfu Lliw yn enw addas iawn i'r 'blog' yma. Yr wyf yn cael hwyl yn tyfu bob math o flodau i Helen i'w defnyddio. Mae hi yn creu lluniau bendigedig, mae y lliwiau yn hollol naturiol,
ac felly'n gweithio'n dda iawn yn rhoi lliw credadwy o'r wlad o'm cwmpas

New PIctures
Here are two of my new pictures -just back from the framers.
Night Sea and Rocky Stream.
Naturally dyed fibres and fabrics and machine stitch
Fabulous Helen! I love the Night Sea, so much movement in the waves! I think that is something you really get right, so many pictures of water are static, but your never are!
Thank you one and all. Yuuko Ichihara- I do a lot of water because of its symbolism (I love the use of water in the Tao Te Ching, and because it makes me feel tranquil just as listening to running water does.
I love these! You are inspiring me with your art-thank you
