I happened across this artists work http://www.brennamaag.ca/current/hortusacea.html She’s taken a domestic craft and made it into this beautiful installation. I especially like the the way she’s categorised the doilies as scientific specimens. Thought you both might like it too. Julie

Have had a collaboartive video piece accepted for a Salon, yippee! Submitted more and updated entries for a Workshop Facilitators site and it seems to have taken all day, ridicoulous. Rain, fog and more rain here in Gateshead, while trying […]
