Spiral stairs

Cutting, tearing, folding and stitching.... thus a book is made. the next piece ready for my solo exhibition, booked ( ha ha, no pun intended) for May next year.. believe me I need the time to get everything made.

This book is made from maps and brochures from England, specifically, London, York and a few other surrounding areas.
Stone spiral stairs featured a lot in our travels, we climbed sooooooo many of them. always worth the view and great for the leg muscles!! Therefore a set of stairs had to made somehow...

Once again a shoe last has been very useful for the support it provides.

German Houses and Italian walking art

Well it is has been way too long between posts. My humble apologies, I have been making things truly!! It's just that life got in the way and I couldn't seem to catch my breath, let alone do a blog post.
So enough excuses.

I am on my way to the creation of a body of work, 2 down ..... who knows how many to go.

"The German Book of Houses"was the first to be completed, this is painted and stitched on heavy paper.

Next came "Walking the Cinque Terre." A sculptural piece constructed on shoe lasts I was given when a friend found them in the loft of their newly purchased house.

My visual diary is getting full of ideas and the next piece will emerge soon, hopefully I will get a lot done in the next couple of weeks as it is school holidays now. 

Wishing you a Blessed Easter
