I try to keep a record of recent activities for friends and family, and anybody else who cares to take a look.

Collage Creations
Over the weekend went to a collage course with Thomas Pound at Artstation. I was very productive and made several pieces some of which I will be submitting for the House to House exhibition the Domestic Craft Group is organizing next month. My main one is the oblong picture which has various memorabilia on it from houses of my present and past and some childhood artwork of Elisabeth's - the orange and yellow printed doyley and the pottery duck as well as photos. I am pleased with the collaged cork table mat with the villa on it too. The three little arched collages look good too. The weetbix box is supposed to be a house collage too and has bits of familiar packaging motifs stuck to the inside and jwill contain some bits and pieces of memorabilia I have kept for years - maybe some of my textile art/craft.
I gave the large collage to Dieter for Valentine's Day which he was pleased about.
