Pattern And Colour With Added Canine

Hello.

Hope you've had a great weekend so far.
I'm celebrating going on holiday for a few days with a bit of colour and pattern.
I don't feel right without a dash of colour, either with what I wear or in my work.
I have my Nan's eclectic taste to thank for that.

So here it is.
See you in a few days, after I've had fun in Amsterdam.

My Supermarket Sarah Wall

Today my Supermarket Sarah wall goes live.
You will find prints, brooches, embroidery, and ornaments, all made by my fair hands ; )

If you're a fan of pugs, chihuahuas, dachshunds in Pucci head scarves, cats and florals, colour and pattern then you might just like what I do!

So pass it on,  have a browse and maybe think of doing one yourself!

New York Bound

Not me, sadly.
A couple of prints, Pug and Pooch In Pucci!
And 2 embroideries, Dwight and Boris.
All showing at Mascot Studios 13th Annual Dog Show.
If only I was delivering them by hand.
Instead I am waiting in for Parcel Force to arrive.
No where near as fun!

But in this waiting period I have been collaging!
Always a pleasure.

So if you're in New York head along to the chow which starts on the 14th Feb.
Take a loved one along and buy them some original art.
After all it will be Valentines Day!

Nathan Fake has been aiding the drawing.

New Cards on Etsy

Grump No 1, Grump No 2 and Pug in Pucci have now made it into card and postcard form.
Soon there will be a Pug Pack, thanks to an idea by my lovely friend Miss Loder!
Cheers you.
Got to get cracking on two commissions tomorrow so might call it a day now and get up early!
Good night all, sweet dreams.

At last I have an Etsy shop!!!

So over the weekend I got my act together and eventually got an Etsy shop up and running.
You will find cards and custom embroidered dog portraits there at the minute.
I intend to include my brooches and illustrations as well as other items.
Glad I have got round to it, feels good to have something on line and really it was pretty simple to do. What the heck took me so long?!!

Anyway you can find it here at
www.etsy.com/shop/StudioLegohead.

Head scarves a plenty

Finished off a commission today.
He looks good, I hope they'll be happy with it.
As well as that I've been drawing, again!!
I think that it is possibly my favourite thing to do.
Even more so than embroidery.
Controversial!

As with yesterdays canine, todays also wears a headscarf.
My internet search for "glamorous women wearing head scarves" gave me lots of pictures of the Queen!!
Not so much glamorous, but still she has style.
I've always secretly like Dot Cotton's outfits!
I think it's 'cause she's always matching.

Now these have plenty of style.

And again - Roam.

Pug In A Pucci Print

I like the idea of dogs in hats and jewelery.
I'm going to continue down this route for a while.
The possibilities for pattern, colour and humour is very appealing.
So today a pug in a Pucci print is what has occurred.
Not so much glamorous as old woman chic!!

Horribly scary, not sure I'd want Dr. Beat anywhere near me!
