Pictures at an Exhibition

KAttwood

I am SO delighted to have two pictures in the annual University exhibition this year.

Djanogly 2

I have been visiting this exhibition for years and never dreamt I would see my work there until recently. I am eligible to apply being an ex employee.

The work is judged anonymously so I am super proud to have been chosen.

Another little jump in my confidence as an artist!

Utterly bespoke paper roses order

KAttwood

Here’s a lovely idea from one of my customers…

Themed roses (gold and navy for a uniformed wedding), displayed in pots covered in sheet music to be played at the ceremony.

I don’t think you can get much more bespoke than that!

 

Painting Grove Avenue

KAttwood

I am obsessed with this view of my road, from the middle – often seen during walks.

The overhanging trees, the tunnel vision, the old garage in the foreground, a tram rumbling past at the end.

I have tried many times to recreate with drawing and painting.

Here’s the latest attempt, a work in progress, unfinished to date.

And another picture of this beautiful view.

Mills and Boon roses – Soooo romantic!

KAttwood

Here’s a box full of paper roses made from a classic 1977 Mills and Boon novel for a customer in Reading.

I sent the book cover and plot summary to add some more interest to the order.

I can also confirm the book has a happy ending!!!

Paper anniversary roses

KAttwood

I have had a few orders via Etsy recently for paper anniversaries (1 year).

Here’s a lovely one from a customer in Cheshire – the lyrics to their first dance printed on to ivory paper with half coloured pink. The same colours as the wedding.

Romantic!
