Inspired by a picture that a friend on holiday sent me from Egypt I have made this picture using coloured wool and some rhinestones and beads. Hope you like it.

New work alert! This 400x400 mm piece on canvas has been inspired by ancient Mayan head drawings. I used individual strands of wool, polished stones, rhinestones glass, and a repurposed vintage earring. I also incorporated crystal glass mosaic stones to emulate the opulence of ancient jewellery. I love how the light catches them!
I’m still looking for the perfect title and I’d love your help. What do you see when you look at this, and what name would you give it? Drop your suggestions below!

I’m so excited to share my latest original piece!
It’s a 400x400 mm canvas inspired by the powerful imagery of Mayan culture. To crate this modern take on a traditional head drawing, I used individual strands of wool, polished stones, rhinestones glass. I also used crystal glass mosaic stones to emulate the intricate jewellery of the ancient Maya, along with a repurposed vintage earring for extra character.
I haven’t settled on an official name yet, so I’m turning it over to you! What does this piece say to you, and what title do you think would be appropriate for it? I can’t wait to read your ideas and see how you interpret the work!
If you’d like any further details, please get in touch.

I would like to share my newest artwork. It is amazing what a simple material such as wool can give texture and life of its own to a picture. I have been thinking what title to give to this picture. I’d love to know what you see when you look at the picture. Is it the colours? The texture? I’d love to hear your best title ideas!

I am so excited to finally share this original piece with you all, which I have named: Búho The Nocturnal Watcher. This project was a true labour of love. I spent hours layering textures and colour to bring the feathers to life, and there’s something about the way these threads come together that makes the gaze feel so alive. It feel like bringing a bit of the wild night right into the room.
Those striking yellow eyes are definitely watching you. What do you see when you look into them?

TANGO UNDER LIGHTS. I would like to share this handcrafted piece "Tango Under Lights". It depicts a dancing couple beneath a glowing streetlamp. The thread work and bold colours emphasise the movement and close connection between the dancers. This was a commissioned piece and is sold. I am open to commission requests (DM me for details).

What tango music you'd play for this couple ?
