Getting ready for a journey

My art work has taken a back seat lately as I am busy preparing to leave Australia for 3 months!! Yes 3 Months in europe and Morocco!! I am so excited as the last time I was there was when I was 17,  32 years ago when I went to Germany on a scholarship.  My husband and I are travelling through, England, France, Spain, Italy, Croatia, Morocco, and Germany.
I have been researching the places I need to see- so many I won't be able to fit them in!
Thankfully I have many well travelled friends who have given me ideas on various places to go.
Barcelona is on the list as is Florence, London, Paris, Venice, Avignon, Berlin, Dubrovnik.... so many beautiful places.
Now to figure out my personal art challenge for the journey.
What will I capture, document, collect??
 I am a collage artist after all.

My work is about journeys, so maps will be on the  list.
Have you got any suggestions?

Let me know if you do.

Here's a photo of a piece I made for a friend Zac's 21st. -Something I whipped up a little while ago. ( as I haven't anything very new) He is a film making student, musician, funny guy.

Printmaking workshop

Wow this year has been so busy, I have barely had time to make anything let alone write this blog. Coming up very quickly is my printmaking class at the Embroiderer's Guild in Malvern. It is a 2 day workshop to be held on February 25 & 26  and students will learn 4 different types of printmaking.

There may be a few spaces in the class, to book in contact the Guild.

A celebration piece

Sorry I have been a bit quiet this week, I was busy making a special piece for my youngest daughter. For each of my children on their 18th birthday, I have created a box from card and filled it with various things about their life.  Phoebe; singer, dancer, musician, cook, creator, christian and so much more.... Here's to you!!
