Val's Altered HeART Journey: Another step in the right direction
http://valsalteredheartjourney.blogspot.com/2009/12/another-step-in-right-direction.html
Val's Altered HeART Journey. Sunday, December 27, 2009. Another step in the right direction. At least start a new piece of art. To get something down on the base, and then go from there. It inspires me. So I hope you enjoy this piece, and that all of you out there had a wonderful, blessed Christmas. I had a wonderful Christmas, which I'm grateful for. There is a lot of depth and texture to this one. I love all the angles and colors. December 27, 2009 at 1:30 PM. December 27, 2009 at 2:54 PM. Thanks for...

Val's Altered HeART Journey: Another page from my Melange book
http://valsalteredheartjourney.blogspot.com/2009/11/another-page-from-my-melange-book.html
Val's Altered HeART Journey. Saturday, November 21, 2009. Another page from my Melange book. Okay, so here's the deal, the bottom line, in brutal honesty. I'm still trying to find my way out of my extended art slump, and just not sure how to do that, or when it might happen. I keep hoping and praying it will happen soon, but who knows? I'm wondering, how many of you out there use rusted found objects in your art? 160;And if you do, where do find them? November 21, 2009 at 12:17 PM. Hi Val. Rusty tr...

Fairy Shoes and Other Things. Thoughts and ramblings from a lover of Textile Art (and Flat Coated Retrievers). Tuesday, 28 July 2009. Come with me please, for a quick stroll through Fairy Glen. We need to imagine ourselves far away, in the northern parts of the Isle of Skye, near Uig. The trees are all native species, Rowan and silver Birch, but somehow different. . . bent and stunted to fit neatly into this strange miniature landscape. Fairy sized, conical hills appear . . .

Couldn't resist showing you these proud parents with their babies . . . and the Moorhen quietly watching. Come with me please, on a quick tour , following the Ceiriog valley to Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog. At Chirk, the Ceiriog valley is wide, with lush meadows grazed by sheep. Here, the Llangollen canal and the Railway viaduct cross the valley. Links to this post. I was te...

Fairy Shoes and Other Things. Thoughts and ramblings from a lover of Textile Art (and Flat Coated Retrievers). Wednesday, 25 November 2009. A bit of help needed from the 'Garden Fairies'. Just a bit of help needed from this 'Garden Fairy', it's been so wet and our building work in the kitchen has revealed a 'damp' problem. . . . . . . No matter, it's all fixed now, just had to dig up half the garden and lower it down a bit. Why does fixing one problem often lead to making another? They're doing really we...

Isn't it wonderful, how the woods dress themselves up for Spring? They seem to put on layers, a bit like us really . . . some shining, bright green, new leaves to brighten up a dark corner . . . Hazel and hawthorn dressing up for May. . . . Here and there , the blossom dancing on the breeze. . . . . Sweet Violets , favourite of Bees and Butterflies.

It's been a funny week here at Rowanspatch. . . . but I thought I'd share these pictures with you, then I must get back to pulling wallpaper off the walls. I know how to have fun! Newly 'hatched' , caterpillar like bracken, uncurling before my eyes . . . . The darling , baby buds of Apple blossom. Talk about "every picture tells a story"! Links to this post. I'm always loo...

Fairy Shoes and Other Things. Thoughts and ramblings from a lover of Textile Art (and Flat Coated Retrievers). Thursday, 31 December 2009. I stepped out into the garden this evening and saw this wonderful moon. . . . . she is so beautiful it sent shivers down my spine. I love the moon, in all her many guises, but full and wintry, I think is my favourite. As the old year draws to an end I wanted to send this message to all my blog friends,. Links to this post.

Lots and lots of changes have happened in my life, most of them good and I've decided to make a fresh start with a new blog. With total lack of imagination, I've called it Annette Emms - Textiles and Tales. I'm not good with the technical side of things, so please bare with me. . . I hope that you will join me on my new blog here. Hope to see you soon!
