A Wonderful Wedding Commission

I recently created this Wonderful Wedding Commission! Painted in the couples wedding colours with their honeymoon route highlighted in gold!

Its always so amazing to be asked to do a commission, especially for a wedding! Some friends were getting married in September and asked me to make them a picture for our gift. The lucky couple are off for a round the world trip on their honeymoon so what better way to remember this part of their life than with a special map commission. I painted the piece in their wedding colours, and…

My kantha embroidery is coming along nicely.

[bryoneyfawn]

This week I have been helping out Highlights on the Rural Craft tour, a touring exhibition which showcases the work of amazing Craftsmen in different disciplines. Today I took part in the Kantha Embroidery masterclass run by Lynn Setterington (http://www.lynnsetterington.co.uk) it was so nice to be quite precise (or try to be!) and work in a different way than I usually do! Here's so snaps from today, my small elephant motif has a long way to go before it is finished though!!! L to R; My sampler and Motif #WIP; boarder stitched by women in Bangladesh; a selection of work brought in by Lynn; a detail of the stitches by Bangladeshi women. (at Cockermouth)

The Wild Flowers of Happiness are Often Found in the Dense Woods of Difficulty - A Recent Commission

Today on my blog is a post about a recent commission I created with the quote 'The Wild Flowers of Happiness are Often Found in the Dense Woods of Difficulty'. Read all about it here.

Recently I was asked to produce one of my ‘Forest Floor’ limited edition pieces in a special A3 size. The customer wanted the piece to give as a present to a colleague who was leaving their place of work. After years of singing her emails with the beautiful quote ‘the wild flowers of happiness are often found in the dense woods of difficulty’, it seemed more than fitting for this Forest Floor…

A Recent Commission

Just before Christmas (gosh it seems so long ago now!) I completed a commission of one of my Watercolour Maps.

Audrey wanted something which would fit into the beautiful interior of her home, which is a mixture of natural wood, timber beams and brick and plaster walls.

I produced this earthy map using a mix of browns, greens and charcoals.

A little shot of the piece coming together

Weekend Away

Its been a very busy week here at Bryoney Fawn as I’m getting ready for 3 shows at once. I have been pinning and framing for hours and hours but the end is now in sight so I wanted to show you my adventures last weekend.

Before all the madness ensued, I managed to take a few days out and head up to the lake district for some wandering, some cosying up by the fire, and some delicious red wine.

Cal…
