Been ages since I've posted anything here. Here are two more garden flower paintings: October and November. I'm trying to decide how and if to frame them - want them to be shown somewhere together with the sacks of dead flowers lurking about from the ceiling like spider egg sacks or pupae. Was going to frame the paintings in a motley assortment of second hand frames and have been collecting them over the past few months but now that they are growing in number I am having second thoughts - might make simple white box frames for them - feels like the second hand frame idea might be too distracting for this - not certain yet but I like the idea of simple white sides with the right number of red dots for the month on the side of the paintings (like the embroidered red dots on the pupae bags).
Been making books all day and most of last week to sell at The House of Illustration's Illustrators' Fair. This year I'm concentrating on small things suitable for stocking fillers so tiny books and tiny paper dolls with cut out clothes. I am hoping it won't be too cold on Saturday although if it snowed I honestly would quite like it as long as I have warm coat and boots and perhaps a hat and gloves too. And a scarf.
