experimenting with fabric paint
and dyes...
eager to create some accessories
with my own hand painted fabrics
Learning
last week i was lucky enough to
take part in a portrait workshop by
artist and friend: Jane Digby
she pushed me and stretched me
and i learnt so much,
it was fabulous!
here are a few pics of the work in progress:

creativity and inspiration

i came across this quote today
and it made me feel good!
"We cannot all do great things...
but we can all do small things
with great love."
-Mother Theresa-
This and that...
Ok so this week i've spent
way too much time on the beach
(we went from winter to summer in 2 days...)
and
browsing the internet
and
not enough time in my studio...
i did manage to draw a few funny faces
though!

Quote
"If the sight of blue skies fills you with joy,
if a blade of grass springing up in the fields
has power to move you,
if the simple things have a message that you understand,
rejoice,
for your soul is alive.
- Eleonora Duse -
the sun is back!
