art for art's sake #425



Hi all, here we are for another peak at each other's workdesks and crafting.
I've been finishing up my latest lapis infinity earrings and making an origami box to send them in.
On Sunday, I went to an exhibition by an artist friend, Catherine Robinson.













It's on till the end of July in Faversham, if anyone's around, and well worth seeing.

Catherine's print, Migration II, is the poster image, right, and is really beautiful. She's done a lot of work in support of MOAS, who help save the lives of refugees trying to cross the Mediterranean into Europe.

I needed to send her a card, and so painted this one as a comment on "Migration" - still enjoying my Japanese watercolour brush pens.  

That's about all this week - happy WOYWW, everyone!
 
hugs, Lynne xxx

    Your friend's print and poster - lovely! Your own watercolor is delightful, and your origami box is a very good idea for your pretty jewelry. I like the paper you chose as well.
    Happy WOYWW!

    Love your card, and the sentiment that it was sent - I'm sure she will love it too! And who wouldn't want their earrings to arrive in such an awesome little box? Thanks for sharing, Lindart #33 - but Mr Linky will take you to a page that says my post does not exist - Fake News! click on "home" and it will take you to the post!
