Introducing myself - Palma

Hiya!

I am excited to be part this. I would just like to thank Sarah, for organizing this for me and thank Vicki, for agreeing to be the other half of the pear pair  ;)

My name is Palma and I live in Italy. I'm a stay at home mum and I eat ,drink and sleep all things arty.  I do all kinds from altering photographs to assemblage. I go through phases of trying out new and different things. My recent phase is with fiber art . I am just learning to do this. I can't master my sewing machine so I sew everything by hand.
I am also a colour junkie! 
My true passion is painting and in particular painting faces.

Here are a few images of the many things that I've created:

A journal page for a CJ swap.

A fabric prayer flag


Pastel portrait of Frida Kahlo


Steampunk box


Well, I can't think of anything else to add except that I am excited to begin and Vicki, sounds like a really lovely person :)

  2. Welcome aboard Palma, our first international member! and such a talented one too :)

    I know that international postage can be an issue, but please feel free to join the mystery gift swap if you like Palma (I'll make sure you are partnered with someone who doesn't mind posting to Italy) or the mail art trail (sending a postcard abroad is cheap and cheerful)

    I can't wait to see the result of your pair journal with Vicki, it's going to be wonderful!
