Pentacle Pincushion by Mo 2013
eelskin, lace, leather cord, linen thread, beads and a chook feather
this was an experiment in blackening the edges of a piece of Karen Ruane’s amazing lace
Magic Feather Mo 2013
a feather that was too brown to be a crow feather so I painted it!
& this was the piece that wasn’t selected
Crow Feather by Mo 2013
framed digital print, grape tendrils, linen thread, beads

Salon Christmas opening at Artsite Gallery

There was a good turnout for the Salon Christmas opening at Artsite Gallery 
Old Man Crow & I put in “the Letter X as a multimedia experience” and a boxed set of “An illuminated Book of Cats” A6 cards 
April White’s The Gift I & The Gift II (oil /pencil on clayboard) are exquisite
& fell in love with Graham Marchant’s Leura Studio Reflections (oil on board) & Window Study #2 (oil on board)
inspired by all the wonderful work on the way home I just had to take a photo of this Corymbia ficifolia in flower
