Spring is on the Air

I hope that Spring brings to you all lots of Sunshine and Flowers to cheer you up

  A card allusive to Spring, my chest painted with flowers and birds and two glass miniatures - artisanal work from a glass factory


A natural flower and miniature birds

Detail of the glass

A miniature basket

And I profited to photograph some of my miniature glasses

And for those who liked the chest - a few details:

The chintz tissue of a bed cover I had once

An watercolour on paper I made to match the decoration of the room years ago - 120x60cm
Please notice that I made a symmetry of the pattern

And at last I reduced the drawing freehand and adapted it to the chest. I used acrylics to paint the decoration. This chest was decorated to be presented at the Madrid Fair in November last.

  3. I just love the pretty chest you have painted,
    and of course the whole scene - no spring
    in Sweden yet, but it will soon be here!
