This way for Writers' Houses Christmas cards ...

 
My Christmas cards are going great guns with Virginia Woolf (above) and the Brontes (the 2012 newcomers) (below) slogging it out for top position this year.
 
 
I started the series last year with John Keats (below)
 
 
and Jane Austen:
 
 
They are printed on white stock card and come with a white envelope in a cellophane bag.
Ideal for bookworms!
On sale in packets of three in my online Etsy shop:
until December 3.

Christmas cards and more for Keats House

I am thrilled to think of my artwork being available on holy ground!

Keats House, Hampstead
 My cards and prints and bookplates will soon be on sale in the Keats House shop which occupies part of the room that was once the Dilke then the Brawne parlour. 
Where the great Keats walked ... 
I am, as you see, cockahoop at the mere idea.
So my studio has been converted into a packing station:


As well as the Christmas cards they will be stocking Sailing to Italy and Hampstead Landscape cards and prints:

Sailing to Italy


Hampstead Landscape - Letter from Naples
 And bookplates - providing I can source very small cellophane bags.


Right, no time to blather on, must get back to my cardboard boxes and bubble wrap and weighing scales and packages which will this week be winging their way to the house formerly known as Wentworth Place...

I'm back ... with naive Christmas cards


I didn't realise how long it has been since I had posted anything.
Daughter has been visiting and I have had lots of bureaucratic stuff to do. 
Then running around to the printer.
Anyway, that's my excuse.
My creativity was zapped - or do I mean sapped - by it all.

But as you see, I haven't been entirely idle. 
More presents have arrived on the steps of Wentworth Place and some new shoots of grass are showing!


This is one of my beautiful (if I do say so myself!) Christmas cards - hooray - which will be in my shop this week.

Watch this space.
Or even THAT space.

Christmas cards

I have been tweaking my Winter Snows image. 
No, what am I saying? 
I have redone it completely to give it a more decoratively Christmasy feel. 

Wentworth Place with silhouetted inhabitants (Keats and Fanny?), the dashing Dilke cats, some seasonal robins and a gift on the doorstep ...


White is EXTREMELY hard to photograph.

I'm still searching for the definitive shot (this needs more to the left and less to the right) but thought I'd put this one up anyway to prove I haven't been slacking after a week's absence.
Each one of those snowflakes has been lovingly (what?) and individually cut and stuck down.

I think I may be suffering from snow blindness ...
