...oh yeah, and I finished the as yet untitled lady with the village on her head, last seen on this recentpost, waiting patiently to be cut out. For those who read that post, there is a very happy ending. My mother read the post and soon after my father very very very kindly bought me a scroll saw. If I pretend that it's like a sideways sewing machine, I'm not so scared. Anyway, the instructions say that it's ideal for making toys and puzzles, so how dangerous can it be?
she's a beauty. and very strategic nose placing, she reminds me a little of aunt sally in wurzle gummage [ did that reach australian shores} and three cheers for brillant thoughtful parents , was it even your birthday?
thank you both so much for your lovely comments -- it means a huge amount to have your encouragement!
I like the idea of wurzle gummage even though I don't know it! Yes indeed, it was very very generous of my father. I think it's the nicest present I have ever received!
This blog is both a record of my work and an attempt to contribute to the vast inspiration that thousands of other creative people have given me via the internet.
I worked for many years in the fashion industry, designing prints, textiles and developing products for children. I now work as a freelance illustrator and make a variety of work under my own name. Some of the things that I make can be found in my etsy shop and in galleries and stores around Australia.
