I love creating landscapes - but I need deadlines to really get me going. One is coming up very fast over the horizon Helfa Gelf 2012, the largest open studio event in North Wales .
here is one of my pictures that I have just completed and sent off to my framers.
"Stone Wall Naturally Dyed Felt and Machine Stitch ".
As well as getting pictures ready I also have to think what I shall demonstrate as people come round visiting my studio. I have tried landsape production but just can't do it as I really need to ocncentrate so need something I can talk about and do quite easily.
One year I had a fermented indigo vat with a large sign on it saying fermented indigo vat RATHER SMELLY. I turned round to see a visitor with his head in the vat taking a long sniff. " I am an archeologist " he said "and just wanted to know what it smelt like"
