Excuse me, Madam

Would you allow me to say

How beautiful you look.

I hope you won’t think

Me impertinent.

It’s a well-intended compliment

Only you know how careful

One has to be these days

Not to be misunderstood.

But truly, I am full

Of admiration for

Your style, flair, colour

Simply magnificent.

And if I may say, with respect

The more impressive for

Being of a ‘certain age’,

As the French would say.

Somehow, deeper, richer.

And genuine.

I am, of course,

In love. KB

RESULTS FROM ON-LINE COURSES

It has been a busy time of year with on-line courses, some of which are still in progress. What has been so rewarding is seeing how students have approached these sessions and produced such a variety of exciting works. Of course to top it all the quality of the teaching has been really superb. Lets look today at some work from Julia Tristons two day course and from Sarah Burgess's course which took place over several weeks.

The first two images show source material from Sarah, followed by two examples from her embossing experiments. The remaining work is from the students on her course and includes mono-printing, layering, cutting through, with applique and shadow stitch.
