I was there....

 I was here too!

I have been taking photographs looking down at my feet for the past couple of years or so - and have been rather relieved over time to discover that I am not alone in this, seemingly rather bizarre yet fascinating, recording of self and place!

The beautifully designed Uppercase magazine Issue 6 included a whole article and here's a link to the related Flickr group and a rather inspiring blog magpie and cake that I came across in my internet foray fellow (or the female equivalent) feet photographers.  Take and look and capture your own feet too....

This blog post was inspireed by this groovy image taken by fellow book artist Simon Goode.

New Creative Friends

I felt uplifted - despite the downpour at the end of the day on Saturday - by the positive feedback from customers and fellow creatives at the Fayre.

 I was there.....

Amongst the new creative friends I've met Katie, event organiser, graphic designer and seller of vintage clothes and Tanya of Frivolous Fancies, whose cupcakes were a true work of pastel coloured and sculptural art.

 

Easter Fayre

Catch me at The Minories Easter Fayre in the exciting cultural quarter of Colchester this Saturday.

Friends of the Minories 

I am really excited to be making miniature, hand-bound notebooks, prints and cards for the Fayre and these two illustrations will be featured...

Codex miniature

Not quite small enough for a doll's house - but getting there.....

the fortune teller tale

A new idea is brewing....

 the fortune teller's tale

the fortune teller

Drawing from my imagination produced one illustration, then the seed of an idea for an illustrated tale and then a revised illustration which i'm posting here.

 'a strange and golden glow filled the air'

I plan to create a new blog to track the development of this idea and I'll post the link once created.

Any comments most welcome.

a new take on the everyday
