Set of 7 beaded chakras

Today I was inspired to complete a set of beaded chakras. I will be making these for sale. Using the colours and symbols of the chakras these pieces are helpful for relaxation and meditation. They will be available as a complete set or as individual pieces.
There are several helpful books to explain the use of chakras in more detail. One I particularly like is by Maya Fiennes and is called Yoga for Real Life.

Not so inspiring

Well I tried. The images had difficulty 'talking' to me. I did a couple of sketchbook pages and designed some fabric, but it's really not my thing. But I did like the metal (tomato paste tube) fired on the gas hob. I added some foil and was rather pleased with the effect.

Images at the Forum

I feel inspired to work a little differently than normal. Usually my images are of the great outdoors, and often are close up pictures of plants etc.
The photos of the Forum will be a challenge to get me to work with a more straight line (literally) approach, and are not at all close up, in fact, just the opposite.
My intentions are to work wit these images in my sketchbook and see what happens. Sometimes it's good to be out of your comfort zone.

At the water meadow

I took my camera for a walk with Inca. The water meadow is aptly named after all this rain. Still it looks lovely and green and there are lots of flowers either already out, or in bud. Below are my favourite photos of today - I'm looking forward to painting on my gessoed wallpaper.

    Throughout my life I have been drawn to textiles and all things 'arty crafty'. Having studied machine knitting and creative textiles on various courses, the time came to go public.
    This is what I love and become absorbed in - a great tonic.
