Honored to be featured in Stampington & Company HOME Magazine, August 2016, with my Apron, Sweet Songs of Bluebells. Available for purchase on my Etsy site!!
I created my art pillows by dropping the dog feet on my sewing machine. Initially, I did not understand what a “dog feet” attachment was, as I was actually look for a sewing foot/attachment in the shape of a dog. These pillows are perfect to decorate your home, your pet area, wedding pillow gifts for the bride and groom, father’s day and mother days celebrations along with just owning an artist doll.
“Oh Really!”, was my first doll, showing my expression in trying to learn techniques while laughing at myself. I loved emphasizing the eyes.
This was followed by my “Emerge”pillow. Self expression of a woman emerging from their own psyche while exploring the expectations from life and others. She begins to see and understand her own substance as she emerges beside two walls of flowers.
“Knowledge and Life Lessons”, are representational of a couple in a relationship. I of course, used the image of myself and rocker, guitarist husband, Johnny V, for image references. I felt we were both gaining and sharing knowledge and life lessons. This is a great pillow for a wedding gift, bride and groom or those renewing their vows! Note the Hot Lips and the bird of knowledge sitting on the woman’s head.
“Brown Girl Contemplating”, is a result of my dear friendships, interactions and long time membership with NCAAWA.org (North County African American Women’s Association. I have a dear friend who during meetings and decision making I can see the contemplation on her face and just smile. I remember thinking about her own diligence to accomplish tasks, so when I was getting frustrated trying to get a handle on my sewing machine, I just smiled. Thus I created, “Brown Girl Contemplating”.
“Kitty Boy”, is the perfect pillow for A man and his cat. I made this after watching the love and interaction of my husband and our Cat, FrankieBJ.
Love Me, is a perfect pet pillow you can hang over your animals bed or give to that special someone.
