More of my work


Many years ago, when I was painting - I painted a group of portraits which I took from the National Geographic- My son has them . I came across a photo of them and decided to do them in thread painting - (when I first started TP) I printed each of the faces on fabric - and then placed each picture on the heavy web, (mentioned above) I then thread painted each face - lots of fun! Here is the
wall hanging - One is a Mali princess, the 2nd is an aboriginal man from Australia and the other is an Australian sheep man.
