My new Art Work Showing at North Yorkshire Open Studios

So far this has been a very creative one for me and luckily the ideas keep on flowing - long may it continue!

Here is a new work that I created at the beginning of the year with the North Yorkshire Open Studios event in mind. As the open studios event is in June I wanted to create something that was colourful and naturally my thoughts led to Alice in Wonderland. This is the second new art work from this theme that I have produced this year and will I be exhibiting them both for the first time from my NYOS venue!

This new artwork is titled ‘Alice in Pursuit’, a mixed media image on canvas.

I hope you like it!

Productivity!

If you have been following me recently you will know that this year I have had a surge of productivity! Literally, I’ve developed lots of new products!

I wanted to create a lovely affordable gifting range which I think I have achieved and therefore I have now turned my attention to my contemporary greeting card range by adding new stock.

The new range complements my ‘Alice’ card following the theme of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and has again been developed from my some of my original artworks.

You may have seen my card developed from the original image ‘The Mad Hatters Tea Party’ which arrived the other week but the latest greetings card has only just arrived and I am more than happy with how it has turned out!

The original image ‘She is a Flower with Messy Petals!’ was created in January this year and was created with the notion of it becoming a greeting card, which is an oddity in itself as I normally create artwork because I am inspired by a particular theme. The thought of a product normally comes afterwards when I look at an image with fresh eyes and evaluate it. Never-the-less I do believe it works as a card and I now leave you with the question  - which one of these greetings cards do you like the most?
