Thanks Jo from Coelho Culture for posting the pic of my Icon Africa stand at the KZNSA Buzz Art xmas exhibition. I have been meaning to take a pic and just haven't had the time.

Back in Africa
Well I am back in SA and have been for a while. Not only have I had a great holiday in the UK but I have also moved my workshop, been to Joburg and now have to set up my workshop. So everything is in chaos, including my headspace hence no blogging. The exciting thing about Joburg is that there is a selected range of the Icon Africa in PIECE at The Firs, Rosebank. Any way here is a little reminder of being back.

Hearts, embroidery, clouds and dolls
I have had a great inspirational month. I finally got my stuff back from the laser cutters and I am very pleased. Take a look. They will be on sale for the first time tomorrow at Stonehaven Castle.

Flowers for Icon Africa
I have been working on a range called Icon Africa. It is about South African flora and fauna. The first in the range was the flower range. The illustrations were done by a good friend Jessica Nicholson. They started off being fridge magnets, as all the "South African" fridge magnets I had seen were rather awful and a bit gaudy, so this was to produce something that had more style. I then realised that they would make great brooches as well. I love how the wood has turned out.
