Just finished creating a bundle of Affirmation Cards that was one of the lessons on Life Book 2017 with Andrea Gomoll. I’ll tell you that these are totally addictive – done 45 with more planned. Decided to use the Indian Chakra symbols on the backs. Wonderful creative project to get yourself absorbed in and great for gifts – your mind can literally run riot.
After almost a year after my last blog I’m back with lots of lovely projects planned for you to follow. 2017 sees me moved up to Congleton in Cheshire where I’ve joined a thriving community of artists at the Electric Picture House: http://www.electricpicturehouse.com be sure to check us out. This Friday sees our first group exhibition of the year “Regeneration” – plenty of inspiration with that title. I’ll be exhibiting my latest piece “Climb Every Mountain” which more or less sums up my life over the past year.
Other projects include: On-line courses “Life Book 2017” ; “Paint Your Heart & Soul” ; and a couple of brilliant Jane Davies courses to look out for. So watch this space.

5 of us try out the new Pebeo mixed media paint range on tiles, mini canvases and acetate – the wine was an extra addition!!!
Amazing few days at Wingham Wools in Wentworth with Alex, Di, Grace and Rossana. A felting extravaganza, beautiful colours and a huge pressing machine to take out all the hard work.
Lesson 3 on my Jane Davies is about painting shapes – sounds easy HaHa you need to be focused, organised and ready to explore a myriad of different shapes, sizes and applications. I did 16 of these in 3 days – here are a few of the better ones.
