Mail art swap and first weekly update of the year!!

Well the mail art swap is now in full swing and there are now 30 of you signed up so far, that is awesome!!
 My mail over the next couple of weeks will be the most exciting mail ever :o)

Keep an eye out on my weekly blog posts to see if I have received your art and sent you something in return :o)
------------------------------------------------------------

So this is my first weekly update of the year and I only have 2 paintings to show you, I have also made a few mail art cards too though, amongst other things, but here are the 2 paintings from the last week, now available to purchase in my Etsy shop ;o)

This one is painted on a 20x20cm flat canvasboard and has lots of lovely textures.

  9. Yes yes, we need art that celebrates the planet, all its beauty and fragility. The first piece captures this so well, the mood, the emotion -

  10. Your faces seem to morph and evolve, changing like seasons and ebbing and flowing between whimsy and reality with every batch you create.

    This, I think, is part of what makes your art so you....and so appealing....
    You touch a part of all of us in different ways :)
