see more of them on my flickr page
All last week I was busy with these guys! I'm really loving the 1970 look Ive got going on, that wasn't what I was aiming for but just love they way they have turned out. They are all large brooch size so maybe small art pieces, they all have raised fronts which is a natural occurrence when you embroider heavily around the outside of the pieces but they remind me of cameo brooches so Ive stuck with it.
Im going to put them in my shop over the next few days.
I'm working on a larger piece now with a whole flock of these guys all jumbled in together. will let you have a look as soon as Ive started it!
wow, they look great! I like that startled looking snowy owl on the end!
ReplyDeletethanks Lou, I agree he does look rather startled!!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely, I may have to link to them...
ReplyDeletethanksxx
ReplyDeleteeach brooch has so much personality & gosh their eyes ... their eyes are so expressive ! They're awesome, truly ! :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove the colors on these brooches. What a terrific idea to make cloth ones. Much softer and less "clunky" - and no harsh labor involved for those who must dig on hands and knees through gravel and filth! You are a mega artist!
ReplyDeleteI just wandered over from Art Spark Theater, and I'm so glad I did! What a marvelous, feathery blog you have here:) I've been thinking about owls lately, myself.
