Horses & unicorns


'Horse Girl wants to be a Unicorn'

The past week has seen a cosmic collision of my computer going mad and a wonderful new opportunity arriving with a very short deadline, which equals a black hole down which most of my time has been sucked. Very much cheered by selling one of my last paintings - rather poignant, as it was one of the last personal pieces I did before needle felting took over my life and soul.
I've been creating versions of these little Germanic toys for many years now, and they are a big feature in the collection I designed for Gisela Graham, which should be in the shops next autumn.







The toy unicorn painting is now on its way to America, the last one in a trio - they live on as a card set, in the shop
here.





(Computer is fixed after several days of stress and fiddling. Once I've beaten this deadline, things can go back to some kind of normal. Hooray!)

Some kind of horse

A bit of a different colour scheme here - not sure if it's 'me'. It's quite bright and jolly, but I prefer my usual tertiary pallette. I like these colours - but not really in my paintings. Hopefully someone will take to it; horses for courses...
