Covid Lockdown = TIDY UP !!

Here I am at the start of 2020 getting slowly organised ... Cover lockdown has given me an excuse to do this!! Above image (from one end of the studio) doesn't look very roomy .. but once things are fully away in cupboards & on shelves, I hope it will be!! Some curtains are ready for stitching on the island unit - it's an excellent height for doing this & with its stainless steel top, means it will be perfect for any paints or similar.

However, I doubt if I will be using this as a main studio blog anymore ... unless I have something related to its use as a 'working studio' (i.e. for use & equipment only). The reason is I'm trying to co-ordinate things better so that certain blogs become "more specific & dedicated" ... so if you want to read more of what I'm actually doing, please click here so that you can "follow my journey".

Resembling a virus !

I've been concentrating on a possible computer virus over the past few days & the above 'paper collage' from the 'cell project' seems appropriate to be added here! I spent all morning running the virus checker & fortunately found nothing.

Cells computer enhanced ...

After buying a few things!! from the Knitting & Stitching Show, I've worked up the earlier 'paper' sample & experimented with a few computer enhanced images (one above & others at right in the listings 'Thoughts' & 'Sketches') .... all along the lines of 'transparency'.

Cathedral window finally found !

Although still not 'in the studio', I've been working on the computer/external drive today & found a lost image of the above. It was an experiment in 'cathedral window patchwork' worked a few years ago - turned out to be rather heavy! I'll be adding more details about it later but felt I had to add it here as its somewhat important to what I'll posibly be doing WHEN I'm back 'in situ'.

Artwork finally starts !

Still hard at work on the computer with leg resting & a bit better. I'm not in the studio working although I did quickly get in at the weekend to try & find a book ... but unsuccessful!

All week I've been busy on my first piece of 'creative artwork' - all being done on the computer for visual concepts (... at this stage!) If you'd like to find out more about the image above, then:
