Fox in the Snow





This workshop was inspired by a fox collage by Paige Balcer. You can see it here: http://lookaway.typepad.com/look_away/2009/02/woodland-creatures.html

We began by blowing white paint through straws to create snowy trees. I then provided students with pre-cut fox heads, bodies and tails which they covered in torn tissue. I touched some of them up with a little orange paint (just to help them along a little bit) before they added eyes and noses. I think the results are really sweet!

Happy New Year!


Well, it's a new year and time to get back to work. Before I start planning new workshops, I just wanted to share a couple of photos of the stall I had at a Christmas gift fair in December. This was my first time at a craft fair (I have previously sold things online and in shops) and I really enjoyed meeting customers and seeing their reactions to my products.
