cathycullis

Sometimes things happen by 'happy accident'. It was such an accident that led me to find the shop of cathycullis and these delightful miniatures.

Reading from her profile I find :
'I enjoy working with mixed media and stitch, found materials such as printed words from old novels, yellowed papers, scraps of linen and cotton, threads and vintage buttons. My works are 'visual poems' and are improvised, carefully constructed, considered. Artists who have inspired me include: Madge Gill, Louise Bourgeois, Marlene Dumas, Aubrey Beardsley and Alice Kettle.'

Click on the above link to find more of her work, or go directly to the ones below, or catch up with more of her work on her blog.
