Work In Progress

I'm doing a series of works on book covers at the moment, so here's a sneaky peek. There is a lot more work to do on them, but so far I'm pleased. That in itself is a miracle as I usually loathe everything I make, have lots of tantrums and throwing fits and vow to take up juggling instead. (Mind you, stomping on balls could very therapeutic!)

Anyway, I digress.......

I love the way these look all together, even stuck up with packing tape!

    These are all really fantastic! I especially love the one with the cross and feather. It looks so simple yet so powerful.

    And I see the remark about being friends with Penny. How fun!!!

    These are terrific! I have often thought that vintage books offer a fabulous canvas. You have done a wonderful job with these.
