Summer breeze.


one of my newest mixed media collage paintings.
Now in the skyeworks gallery.

Small strips of paper cut and torn form the grasses. and modelling paste and small pieces of silver flakes form the cow parsley flowers.


I forgot to take many WIP shots, but here are a couple.
I am taking a couple of weeks break so see you in September ;)

Golden eagle




Remember my clay eagle?
Well this is my progress so far.


The eagle is attached to a collaged paper background.


i added lots of gold leaf to both the eagle and the landscape.



I am not sure if it is finished yet so I am propping it up here until I decide :)

An eagle has landed


Trying something new with my air drying clay.

I have made an eagle and am going to try and fix it to this large wooden panel.
Not quite sure how well it will work as it is much bigger than my small mermaid pieces, I will keep you updated on it's progress.



This is a bird of prey I spotted.. high in the sky, drifting on the thermals.

sunshine starfish



Last week I posted my beach pebble sunshine, and here it is finished, unfortunately there hasn't been a lot of sunshine recently so this will have to do instead. I think it looks a little starfish like, curled around the pebble.


it is made from air-drying clay which I fixed with modelling paste.

on pebbles I find on the shoreline..once dry I will seal and paint with acrylics.


Plenty more pebbles to work on.... :)
