This piece was supposed to have soft layers but I ended up giving more to this piece than I thought. This is the case in life too. As women, we often give so much of ourselves to others. This piece is a gentle reminder that's it's OK to put that time and energy back into myself

Something a bit different from me.

Back to my textile roots!

A Christmas commission 🎄

I wouldn't normally paint pet portraits, but a good friend of mine asked, and how could I refuse this wee face.

Meet Jac the Poodle cross!
