Hurricane, The Canine With The Best Name And Hairdo!

Sorry it's been a while.

It's been a busy time, but all good and I'm getting to do the thing I love most, draw canines.
So here's Hurricane, quite frankly the best name, and with the best hairdo!

I'll leave you with him for now, and I'll be back soon : )
Bonus being I got to draw him twice.

Embroidery Magazine Feature

Hello there!

Something rather lovely happened last week.
My work was featured in Embroidery Magazine.
I've been a regular reader of the publication since I was a student, and to get a mention in there is a bit of a treat.

The editor Jo Hall works passionately to create a varied read with a fantastic range of artwork featured. So a big thanks to Jo for asking me to be a part.

Also to be interviewed by the rather fabulous Ian Wilson was something of an event. With Poppaea the parrot singing and talking to us from the corner of the room and collections of glorious ornaments and objects decorating the walls and shelves. Ian clearly is someone that has a fascination with the curious and a man after my own heart!

A lovely way to start July.

New - Floral Doodle Greeting Cards

Hello and happy wednesday to you.

The sun is making a rare and most welcome appearance here.
I must say it's long overdue. Spring is finally showing it's face.

So to beckon it on even more I'm introducing my new Floral Doodle greeting card series.
At present there is 4, but there will be more coming very soon.

They go a treat with my existing floral doodle prints ( Oh Joy! is a fan and we all know she's got good taste ;)
If you decided you didn't want to send them to anyone, they'd even look great framed on your wall!

All can be found over at my Etsy shop.
Have a super day.

House Plants And A Bit Of Patchwork

I'm terrible with house plants.
My record is keeping 3 alive for nearly over a year and a half, and that's been a struggle.
I either over love them or neglect them.
I must try better.
A collage version will last far longer in my hands I'm sure!

Floral Friday!

It's no good.
I try to go all wintery but my brain just won't let me.
I've been working on some new florals, and I'm enjoying creating them very much.

Here's a few. Happy Floral Friday!

Canines In A Floral Garden

I'm a big fan of florals and canines, if you hadn't noticed!
So what better to combine the two things, using a more floral doodle type of garden.

These guys are very happy lapping up the sunshine and enjoying some quiet time.

I've just added them to my Etsy shop.
So if you know someone who's a pug, whippet, or dachshund fan, and likes a bit of kitschness it might be for them. Or if you fancy brightening up your walls then it might be for you : ) x

More Embroidered Doodles

Oh bonjour!
The urge to dive back on the machine happened today so before getting stuck into commission, here's a new floral doodle.
Enjoying the different mediums x x x

Blooming Marvellous!

I cannot tell you how much I've been enjoying the Lilla Rogers MATS course.
The amount of work I've been producing has been fantastic and I'm developing my ideas more and more.
Just sad that next week will be the end of the course.
Still one more week to enjoy and push myself.

This week was Wall Art, and I was given the colours red and orange to play with.
Below are my two pieces. The second is my final assignment piece. I've already had an order for one as a print! Nice x x x

Etsy Shop New Arrivals

These, of course include canines, but now have the added bonus of cats and florals in the collection!
It's been a while coming and still more to add but here are a few for now.

So what you waiting for, get something bright and cheerful for your home : )
