Inspiration Leaves

 I have been looking through photographs I have taken as primary source inspiration. I love some of my leaf photos and am thinking about ways to incorporate sketches based on these photographs into my abstract and art quilts.  Some of my photographs from Bogor Indonesia.

Inspiration Casuarina Beach, Darwin Northern Territory

I have had frequent trips to Darwin and am inspired by the beautiful scenery in this city and region. I am particularly drawn to the beaches, sea and coastal areas. 


Below are a series of six fabric postcards I made recently inspired by Casuarina Beach near Darwin.




The work below is 10 inches square and is also inspired by Casuarina Beach and shells.

Fabric Postcards

 My latest set of fabric postcards was inspired by photographs I took of the New England Tablelands between Guyra and Tenterfield. I hand painted the background and used hand stitch for texture.
