But it's that wet snow, that slowly drips away, soaking everything through. So tonight, the snow only sits on lawns, and undisturbed ground.
I've completed my portfolio for the City & Guilds textiles course. I hand that in tomorrow. We're doing felting now, so I'm having the opportunity to think about how to develop my skills. I'm working on some ideas from last summer, when I visited Star Carr in East Yorkshire. Those deer head-dresses continue to intrigue me!
As they intrigue the archaeologists to this day!
Above is Jill Halsall's felt piece from our Woolgathering exhibition last November. Silver birch trees.
The silver birch trees illustration is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that! It's a piece by Jill, and made of felt; and lights up! I'll pass on your comments to Jill. She's a brilliant felt-maker.
ReplyDeleteThanks for putting me on to Goldfrapp, I am so out of date that I hadn't heard of her. The owl costume is great. Congrats on finishing your portfolio, must feel very satisfying.
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather. It's the first part/module of the City & Guilds. I'm still working on the course, and will be doing another module next term. This term is felting; which I completed last year. So the felting I'm doing is to develop my skills. Pressure's off though, for a few weeks at least.
