NAMAQUALAND SPRING
In spring
time, not far from where I live, is Namaqualand, known world wide for its
beautiful carpets of flowers in the fields that grow wild and attract thousands
of visitors every year in September. I have created the front panels of a
WAISTCOAT to depict their beauty into a piece of wearable art.
SUMMER
SUNSET
In the summer my husband and I love to go for walks along the beach and
watch the sun set behind the mountains. This CUSHION that I have created
depicts those special times.
AUTUMN
GLORY
In the autumn, at our home, where we live, there are many trees and of
course we are constantly picking up thousands of leaves. This WALL HANGING
depicts this wonderful time where there seems to be such a magnificent variety
of colour in all the leaves.
A WINTER
DREAM
Where I live we seldom get snow on our mountains, and never on our
ground, so with this WALL HANGING I depicted my dream of snow and snowflakes,
but also the large amount of rain that we actually do experience every winter,
which feeds the ground, so that our spring times are always so beautiful.
