'Jardiniere' Development work.....

Development of sketchbook work.....





Jardiniere Begun.....



Jardiniere project has now begun....i am experimenting with collage and 2D mixed media, to create pieces which echo memories which surround 'HOME'....everything we possess, buy and create all hold memories from the past...whether it is stored in an attic, holds a photograph or displayed. I am a hoarder!!!...and when i come across objects in my home....whether it is when i am looking for something or having a spring clean, it often stirs a memory from when i bought and brings a smile to my face...

Sketchbook work.....



Sketchbook work....these images i have taken from the detail of my fire surround...ornate moldings and Victorian tiles.

Sketchbook work.....


Architecture has such high importance to me, especially ornate architectural detailing and facades from the past....


Sketchbook work....


Flowers...play an important part of remembering the past..people buy, receive and plant to create memories of loved ones lost, and to remember and celebrate birthdays and anniversaries....
