So much more is visible when you look at the detail of this print from the plate, the leaf looks fragile , hand drawn and has a historical botanical feel about it, this was printed on paper , however I think being a textile practitioner  I should try this on linen or calico, then I need to see if the body of the leaf changes at all. I have done this in the past with lace and it has been very successful, first printing on cloth and then taking a negative, not only do you get the print of the object but also the weave of the cloth .

My Studio. Over the past months my husband with the help of a builder changed one of the out houses into a studio, this is the most amazing space, it is quiet, somewhere where I can reflect, leave work in progress out and hopefully do some work. I feel before long the dog and her basket will be living under my desk to keep me company. Its been a huge journey for all of us but I think the commitment from my husband to help me move forward deserves a medal. He knows how important this is to me and also knows it will heal me.
