Doesn't look very appetising does it? I used the paints and a water brush from my art brush roll which I took with me on my travels to Fuerteventura. [the fabric roll was a gift from a friend]

Fairy House

I'd been looking at fairy houses on Pinterest made of clay so I thought I would have a go. I used DAS modelling clay which hardens without cooking.

This is a digital collage I made from my photos

Osterlars Church, Bornholm, Denmark. This round church looks very interesting from the outside, unfortunately we couldn't go inside because of a wedding.

Friday Catch Up - 21st February 2025

Friday Face Off

Faces painted on fabric with Inktense blocks and pencils. It's quite difficult to paint on fabric because if the paint is quite wet, it spreads and if it's too dry it doesn't cover. The first picture is my mum from a few years ago. The others are random faces I found on the net.

Friday Face Off

Another stitched face. I stuck to just black threads and a little applique for this one.

Next I tried Inktense blocks on fabric, no stitching

I outlined this one with black marker

Gelli Print Book - I've used an old cookery book to use some of the gelli prints I've been doing. I removed some of the pages so that it wouldn't get too thick and also added some collaged pieces.

The little picture was a drawing/collage I saw of a doll on Pinterest

The face is the fabric one I showed you last time

Another drawing of a doll I saw on Pinterest

Some things I cut out on my cutting machine

The figure is part digital print of a photo and the arms are from a magazine.
