hooray! New Studio!

At last after 7 years of waiting I’ve got a new studio ! Can’t wait to have most of my stuff out of the house and my loom saved from the garden!!

Not quite sure how I’m going to afford it but I’ll just have to chase those potential commissions! ( I have a few) tapestry portaits in the potential pipe line!

Any way I’d better get on…

 just desperate to tell you!

happy new year when it comes!

everyone is stocking up for the festivities.

 

.me? no i’m looking forward to a quiet evening and start the new year afresh! (tommorropw – hogmanay) I’ll be tidying up after christmas to start the new year more organised – at least a bit! thats my new year resolution! I’ve got big descisions to make in 2009 – whether to invest more in the scarf and waitcoats or concentrate on my handwoven portraits…..bit of a conumdrum going on in my head!

Any way have a good one and I’ll see you in the new year!

At last i finished this commission! This has been my hardest tapestry yet I think! I am pretty happy with it! Though always as an artist  I always feel I’d weave it a little differently now if I was to start again!

This tapestry is about 29 x 20 cm and is hand woven using linen and cotton.

some of my portraits!
