Persephone

Here she is in all her glory, meet Persephone, my new piece of work from the Legacy series.  Made from silk flowers, snake skin, birds wings, snail shells and insects, this piece took over a year to make.

If you would like to come and see her, the private view for our exhibition is tomorrow, Sunday 11th November 1.00pm until 4.00pm at The Horsebridge Centre, 11 Horsebridge Road, Whitstable. The exhibition will be on until 13th November.

Work In Progress

I’m working on a new sculptural piece for an exhibition in November. 

A small detail from the sculpture I am working on, it will be covered in a multitude of birds wings, butterflies, other insect life and silk flowers….. This will take quite some time and lots of love
