Continuing on the bird theme of recent posts, I have been really enjoying using mono printing. I think the quality of the line created by mono drawing has such a unique quality. I then used the image and silk screen printed it onto calico and made this purse, with hand embroidery and buttons.
It's a sweet little thing, just sits nicely in the hand.
Reverse has a little Liberty Tana Lawn and silk piccy of a bird, finished with a button.

Hi Viv - wow you sound so energized and full of ideas - love the bird - love them all. My little purse that I purchased from you sits on my vanity where I can see it every morning and every evening. I will eventually "use" it but right now I don;t want it to get dirty and I just want to enjoy it. I love your blog too!
Love what you are doing with the monoprints. I need a whole day to just catch up on your blog!
... and your bird can sing! Love the birdie... are you going to start calling home 'The Factory' and do screenprinting of all the famous people (and possibly dogs) where you live? Viv Warhol? Has a nice ring to it dunnit?!
Really tweet Viv.. groan.. sorry!
You now I love them little birdies!

P.s Not even going to attempt this song title having made a complete Klutz of myself last time..

Gorgeousness.
How lovely to be able to access the print room goodness!
By the way I forgot to say on your last post, Hylas and the Nymphs by JWW was one of favourite ever paintings for ages and then I met Brian and it was in his care as he worked in the gallery where it hung . We had a big print of it in the bathroom until my lovely MIL declared 'Fancy having all those nudes there'
Lovely birdies...I can hear them all twittering away from here!
I love the attitude of the birds, so whimsical and wonderful!
Have a nice weekend
