Doodlewash - Mushroom

I used brush pens for this, 6 colours.

An old digital doodle which I altered into a face.

I'm joining in with Friday Face Off

Another digital tablet doodle.

I decided to do a bit of embroidery on this plain linen shirt.

I've been on my first ocean cruise, I went to Norway, it's very beautiful.

 

Fuel and Mixed Media Embroidery

Illustration Friday challenge - Fuel

Some kinds of fuel are fun!

Paper collage  and digital collage

The mixed media picture below is an old one from my City & Guilds Embroidery days.

I cannot remember what the coils are exactly but they look like giant pencil shavings. The picture includes fabric painting and embroidery.

Winter Wonderland

I designed this picture for the Hand Embroidery Network exhibition - Winter Wonderland. I was to register by a certain date & then forward the pictures at a later date, but as I didn't think I would get it done in time, I didn't register. As it happened, the date to send entries was extended, so I would have got it done in time after all. Never mind, I will put it in the 'Layers' exhibition.

Check out the other entries at HEN, there are some really good ones.

Picture  - Paint, running stitch, french knots.

The window - painted heavyweight vilene, plastic, hand stitching.

Deep frame - the window is next to the glass & the snowscene at the back to give the effect of space, looking through a window.

I like the bird

Earth Globe

Hand embroidery - I did this quite a few years ago, but it's still one I like to look at and touch. Some countries are easily recognizable but others you will need to use your imagination! I got the idea from a squeezable stress ball of the earth.
