There's more!

Dick Whittington 1998. Scenic design by me. I won awards for my sets on this show!

Backcloth in progress;

(me looking much less than glammy!)

School project (2000) - World Food and Culture. This was the India classroom. I thought the view outside the window worked really well with my painting!

This was Africa;

And I made these to go in the courtyard which could be seen from the window. I also made little 'binoculars', so my pupils could spot the animals outside! (I cut the animals out from hardboard and then painted and varnished them.)

Wonderfull! I plan to get me a boudoir when I move together with my boyfriend and I think I´ll hire you as architect!

 

[GOK]

Cool - you can keep me supplied in veggie burgers! lol

 

[Miss Dottie]

Whoa! GOK! That is amazing! I actually had to do a double-take on the giraffe--it looked so real.

And BTW, love the new photo--you hair looks divine! How do you get such height?

Whoa! GOK! That is amazing! I actually had to do a double-take on the giraffe--it looked so real.

Thank you - I actually think that was the worst one of the lot! But it looks ok from a distance, I guess.

And BTW, love the new photo--you hair looks divine! How do you get such height?

Actually, it's all just piled on top (with a little left trailing down) and secured with a bulldog type clip. My hair is so ridiculously thick that (I think) the height comes naturally. It has its downside too though because I have great difficulty doing anything creative with it! :eusa_doh:

Susie, those are amazing, truly beautiful!
I'm so sad, I own a condo, which means that things like windows are all standard and ordered by the management company. I so wanted to put in beautiful french doors with stained glass to replace the sliders to my deck, but the board of trustees won't allow me to do it, even though I own the place! Argh, I really do love stained glass.

By the way, welcome to the lounge. I hope you'll take some time to introduce yourself in the new member thread!

Susie, the first row of stained glass was so beautiful it quite brought a tear to my eye. Yes, the VW microbusses with the split windscreens. All are lovely, you are so talented.

KitschGoth, the hat looks great. What kind of fabric did you use. Is it wool felt?
