Transience, a well thought art theme

In 2016 I shared the Living Arts Space at the Bendigo Information centre with two other artists Mari Basile and Lyn Cole.

Our theme was The Transient Landscape.

I realise now that this theme has never really left my body of work.

It has evolved to include the Transience of human existence. Brought to the fore with my challenges over the last 19 months or so with Myeloma.

Working on my latest paper bush mannequin made me realise this, asking myself does it represent evolving from the earth or is it representing returning to it?

Many thanks to hubby Bill Greenaway for continuing to capture me at work.

Miniature winged back chairs

I wanted to make a chair or two for a new miniature room box I am working on. This miniaturist (Bentley House minis) posts quite a few different videos on making things in 1/12 scale which is what I like to work with – it is not too tiny! (see below)

I am really happy with the end results which I know are not perfect but they are totally handmade and feature my unique photographs of Australian wildflowers which I design to print onto cotton.

I also sell this fabric, contact me if you would like to purchase.
