Dolly Mixtures

Have just finished two more 'toothbrush rugs', which have the same colour combination as classic children's sweets such as dolly mixtures, fizzy flying saucers and those alphabet ones that broke your teeth.

Through The Looking Glass

Excellent day today working as Artist in Residence as part of the Wembury Marine Centre SeaAiR programme. Small but lovely, creative and enthusiastic group of people using the seashore environment to create driftwood mirrors. 

Kicked off with a leisurely stroll along the beach this morning to search the strandline for interesting items to decorate our mirrors with and blow away the cobwebs. Lots of dog whelk shells, sea glass and driftwood but no mermaids purses, crab shells or other 'interesting' finds presumably due to all the stormy weather and rough seas.

Then an afternoon of noisy creativity with hammer and nails to create our finished pieces. Everyone very pleased with their final results.

Thank You everyone for attending.
