Ready to hang.

A contented sprite sits amongst a fine display of roses. I graced this piece with leaves and pressed flowers from nature and added 3D textures throughout the piece, finished with a sparkle of faerie dust!

I used pencil, pastels, mulberry paper and fern leaves on tea-stained 180msg paper to create a unique collage. ‘Like the fern, we grow and flourish if we unfurl towards the light and truth. The more we unfurl, the more the tendrils of our true nature begin to show as we surrender…’]]> Lady of the Fern on 222mmx 258mm paper, with mulberry paper overhangs and natural fern leaves (fits comfortably with a 12”x10” mount surround).

Serenity resonates from the deep centre of our spirit to bring peace and purpose. It is truly ours when we trust in the light of our connection. She conveys it with eternal silence, hence her look of stone. She is at peace and replenishing her reserves of vitality.]]> Created back in Oct 2014
