New driftwood work: a week in pictures

The wood here comes from the washed-up boat we discovered last week. I utilised the original copper nails to create a "functional" piece of art!

"Farmhouse with washing line"

The vibrant colours of "Cottages On The Beach" would look great hanging in someone's bathroom

I love the roof on this one: all those layers of peeling paint in gorgeous colours!

"Village On The Green"

The blue piece is a little bit special: one of those finds that have been waiting in my woodpile for the "right moment"!

Our House, in the middle of our street....

Quite a prolific week! I am enjoying myself thoroughly at the moment!

    I love your work so very much...the collage paintings, the wood pieces, just all of it. The spirit contained within is so special. Thank you!

    I love your "functional" piece, it's really great! - I think it could steal anyones heart. And the rest of the houses are pretty as well - I'd be sad to sell them.

    Happy days to you Kirsty!

    I wish you lived closer, I'd have you over for tea and a chat and then we could go for a walk along the beach to see what we could see! Love your your colour selections.

    I love your driftwood cottages and would love to have one. Do you sell them?
