I recently subscribed to Oh Comely magazine. I love it.
It's full of interesting, not-too-wordy
articles on music, art, craft, fashion and life.
There is a quiet, calm, uncluttered feel to the whole publication.
They've asked Folksy sellers to submit work
with the theme "Every item tells a story".
This is what I submitted.
It's called "Some Lived.... Some Died"
An original illustration, hand-painted on
mouth-blown glass and kiln-fired, then
mounted in a lead frame.
That's a beautiful image, and particularly beautifully wonkily framed.
ReplyDeleteI really like your technique.
ReplyDeleteLove this Flora, my favourite piece to date I think, wonkyness and all :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!...wonkyness entirely intentional. Straight lines can be so boring :^)
ReplyDeleteaside from the fact that it is indeed a very beautiful illustration i love the matter of factness of its title too.
ReplyDeletein an effort to come up with another way of describing you as a genius i've consulted my thesaurus and ......if you don't mind .....the informal description is 'egghead'....won't melvin be pleased ???
you really are an incredible egghead ms flora.
