In Vogue

Home sewing is not as prevalent as it used to be. The hours pouring over which pattern to chose, which bolt of fabric is the right one, are long gone. Using a 1940s Vogue pattern instruction sheet, oil paint and then creating a dress from collaged 1980s patterns was a good way to use up what otherwise might end up in landfill. Working on vintage material that old means accepting the signs of previous use and loving that it's part of the story.

Artist Statement
After painting as a full time artist for the past 15 years, I've decided to just leave some previous works available here as prints only. No originals. It is unfortunately no longer financially viable to try and sell original work on this site when my returns after two recent increases in commission from BT, increases in shipping, material costs etc mean my actual proceeds from a sale are quite small. Thanks to my collectors and followers these past years. I wish you all the very best.
