Unicorn Nocturne

No time to sit quietly under the stars and think beautiful thoughts; things to do, felt to stab, paintings to finish, paintings to start, book-job to get on with. Thought for the day - needle felting - please don't anyone let the Government know how much fun it is and how addictive. They would either ban it or tax it.
Unicorn Nocturne £60.00 mounted, from Etsy

(four cats and bad needlefelting habit to support...)

That's so pretty, Gretel. :-D I love the whimsy of your works. Your imagination is just gorgeous. I have finally gotten around to linking Middle of Nowhere to both of my blogsites. Hope you don't mind. :-D

Cheers,
Marianne

Lovely work G - especially beautiful bluey green wash in the sky, and the fried egg flowers made me laugh!

Wonderful, Gretel. I love the colours and sense of movement. It's simple and delightful but seems to have rich meanings.

Very magical and lovely!

I have a feeling that I'd better stay away from needlefelting ... I've got a bad scarf-knitting habit and don't need to add another! I love your Unicorn Nocturne. (I'll have to stop buying wool so I can afford some art!)

When are you going to *post* some of your felting creations??? (enquiring minds, you know?)

Don't tell me how good needlefelting is, I can't take up yet another craft, the house will implode! Hurry up and show us what you've made! (love the dreamy feel to your painting..)

Such a wonderful piece!
I can't wait to see your stabbing (felted)creations!

Joanna said...

Love the unicorn it reminds me of our moon lit walk on saturday. Would love to see your felted creations!

You have a beautiful way with wash colors.

And your thought for the day is so true here, too! ;-)

It's not fair, I keep getting glimpses of your felting on the studio cam but it's not big enough to see properly!
