....the talent of others. Chum, E and I, popped into a small local art gallery on Tuesday to look at some jewellery made by a lady she knows and who is currently teaching her.
Well what can I say.....I am challenged craftwise but I really appreciate the incredible work of others. Here's a small taster.
"Just dropping by" by Michael Topham. This is made of wire and produces amazing silhouettes. More of his whimsical work can be viewed here http://www.miketopham.co.uk/index.html
"In an English Country Garden" by Nancy Shafee. All made from felt.
Conker made by Fleur Grenier. http://www.fleurgrenier.co.uk/
Udaipuir by Lois Bellew. This piece had gold threads running through it and came alive when the sunlight caught it. http://loisbellewtextiles.weebly.com/gallery.html
Harpy by Mavis Walker. This quirky piece was amongst my favourites.
All these artists are members of the Surrey Guild of Craftsmen. More of their work can be seen here http://www.surreyguild.com/
