Found a nice new hashtag today - #officiallyautumn. Anyone care to join me? 🍂☺🍁 . Edited to add: I've just posted a picture of a dead bird with autumn leaves and apple blossom, so I really should be saying something profound about birth/death/the seasons. But honestly, words fail me 😕 I'm trying to get better at writing about my work, but evidently not doing very well! 😂 . . . #wallpaperwednesday #upandautumn #aseasonalshift #fallfeels #tinytinymoments
May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. . . Happy Friday peeps, have a lovely weekend ⭐⭐⭐
What are your favourite Instagram accounts to follow at the moment? I'm not sure how many users there are (millions? billions? Anybody know?) but I feel like I'm only scratching the surface and I must be missing some amazing stuff. Who have you enjoyed discovering recently? Please share!! 😀
It's been an absolutely beautiful autumnal day here - a bit chilly this morning but glorious sunshine this afternoon. Looking forward to more of this, and seeing the leaves turn, over the next few weeks! Have a lovely weekend peeps 😊🍃🍂 . . . #autumnisthebest #aseasonalshift #autumnmood #upandautumn #welcomeautumn #yellowleaves
So this is a little glimpse of my new studio, and my new #unpreciouswall. Because its in my house, this room has a skirting board, which I really like because it keys me right in to the domestic setting which is central to my work. The trailing Rose stems are from my garden - I was too poorly over the summer to keep on top of the garden so it's all grown like crazy. When I get round to tidying it up I'll be bringing armfulls of greenery into the studio to include in my work. I love it when the outside comes inside 🌿🌿🌿 . . . #studiolife #studiomoments #artistlife #ofquietmoments #aseasonalshift #bringtheoutsidein #ramblingrose #glitterball #discoball #savourtheseasonalshift #botanicaldreamers #alittlebeautyeveryday
A companion piece to my last post. . I didn't realise until people started commenting that my last post could be interpreted as a trapped bird, and it's made me realise that perhaps I should explain my work a bit more! All these images with wallpaper are playing with the idea of the wall coming alive, almost as though it's dissolving to reveal another realm. So the animals are emerging, or being revealed. I like to think that the viewer is bring pulled through into a kind of fantastical forest, full of birds and beasts and trees of many kinds. . . . . #fantasticalforest #fantasticbeasts #wallpaper #wallpaperrocks #carouselhorse #photoshop_creative #creativegrammer #digitalmashup #digitalcollage #multipleexposure #thenativecreative #fantasywallpaper
