I 've been trying to brush up on my drawing skills by drawing or painting something every few days. (it was going to be a drawing a day but on reflection I decided that is going to be impossible to maintain so at the moment I am trying for at least once a week!) I love birds and feathers because they are so textured and patterned and interesting to draw.
Interestingly enough (or perhaps not ...) I like pictures of birds but I do not like live birds at all. I am terrified of them - not sure why. But I DO like your bird drawings very much and the embroidered cushion covers are really lovely!
I am a textile designer,beader and crafter. I live in the beautiful seaside villiage of Hermanus with my husband, two boys(who are both working away from home now) and a ginger cat. I love creating things and have always worked with beads,fabrics,design, colours and yarns. My 'proper" job is working as a Literacy & Numeracy facilitator for a local NGO.It is also creative, but in a completely diferent way and most rewarding.
