Fabulous feedback

Here are some of the comments from visitors to my “artist in studio” display as part of the Kapiti Coast Art Trail 2024:

What an amazing display. Love the jewellery.
Great colourful display!
Absolutely beautiful artworks and jewellery. Joyful and heartwarming to look at.
Beautiful work, well worth a visit.
Amazing, unique style – really cool.
We really enjoyed seeing your art – you have such a lovely and lively way of using colour, shapes and texture.

I really appreciated this feedback, and the visitors who took the time to write in my comments book – thank you!

Fibre art has its own site

My Eclectic Yarn pages and updates were beginning to take over this site, which was meant to be just an overview of my creative endeavours – so I’ve created a unique website. I’d love you to FOLLOW me on the new site, as well as this one.

All the fibre art pages from this showcase site have been transferred to the new one, and there’ll be plenty more new and updates from eclectic yarn, especially as I create new things and prepare for the 2023 Kapiti Arts Trail in November.

Natural fibre artwork sells!

Two of my fibre artworks have sold this week, Silver Birch with Lavender through from out of the blue studio gallery in Ōpunake, and Summer into Autumn at the Waikanae Community Market. The second sale followed a conversation about the fibres I used, and I mentioned that work submitted to the gallery in Ōpunake is required to be made from “all natural fibres – no synthetics allowed”, and how it’s influenced my choices so that (unless using up bits of my old stash) I now try to use all NZ wool, sometimes cotton, but no acrylics. The ‘browsers’ returned a short time later to purchase a fibre artwork, saying, “We’d like to support you.”
