I thought it would be a good idea to write about some of the new products I have listed in my website and Etsy shops. I don’t always like just promoting my stuff on here, but I’ve moved away from writing a blog for a while, as I wonder who reads blogs these days. I miss writing it though, so I’m going to make more of an effort, even if it’s just for myself.
But anyway, the new products: I have a brand new badger tote bag available.
I also have a little badger tin. Inside the tin is a tiny concertina strip featuring badgers on one side and moon phases on the other:
I’ve made a few little box frames with original pen and ink scenes. There’s a deer one and a fox one. The badger one has recently sold, but I’ll show it anyway:
I do enjoy making these little layered scenes. These days I use off-white card, which is gentler on the eye, and I’m experimenting with covering the frames either with paper, such as print-outs of old maps, or with paint. I’m used to using acrylic paint on wood, but not used to combining it with pen and ink in the same artwork. I’m still working at this.
Also in my shops are little pen and ink originals:
The Owl and the Snake was inspired by a recent holiday on Crete where we heard a lot of Scops owls and hoped to see a snake (as it is the Year of the Snake!)
