Field day

After 7 years of patiently waiting in the rain, I finally got a decent British summer this year. Every 7th one is a good'en apparently. Damn, should of got married this year..Anyway, the sunny mornings soften the hard fact I must get out of bed, and I have been strolling to work via the river and meadow route I found.

This is wonderful as I can delay the reality of the working day ahead and I pick myself some treasures up on the way. Plant treasures, just so we are clear.



The Widford Arts Exhibition is fast approaching and my mixed media prints are nearly complete!

Playing with plants and flowers found on my walk, I found that actually inking up the stems themselves works a treat! They create a delicate printed image on the fabric. The ink only touches the raised edges so it creates a stamp like look. I like this. Might have got a bit carried away with this.


These are some detail pics of just one of the final works. You can see the final pieces on display, along with other local artists, on opening night, Friday 6th September at Widford village hall, 7:30pm - 10pm.
