autumn inspiration

the sun has been shining and the forest is amazing
really the best autumn i have ever seen..and i will post some photos

i have been inspired by a wonderful gift i received from india
much much better photos of her eco dyed textiles on her own lovely website




also inspired by some roses i painted when fresh but much prefer now



not that have got around to much textile work yet...but am certainly thinking about it...

and this is what happened






autumn roses
30x30 inches

picnic in a painted orchard

well the studio open day went very well...many thanks to everyone who came...these pictures were taken at the end of the day...i wish i had some of the lovely lovely food, cider and perry

yes... i am wearing an amazing, much admired India Flint dress...this has been making me so happy...and the post about it (well them) is long over due...but will arrive next week, promise

now i have to get back to a soon to be very untidy studio...
painting for the Chelsea Art Fair...
and that is very soon
