About The Artwork “I am the sum total of everything that went before me, of all I have been seen done, of everything done-to-me. I am everyone everything whose being-in-the-world affected was affected by mine. I am anything that happens after I'm gone which would not have happened if I had not come.” ― Salman Rushdie, Midnight's Children This unique piece, one of a series of three, is an exploration of the experience and memories of others, imagined and real, fused seamlessly with Mackie's own through the salvation, destruction and re-contextualizing of materials. Mackie's use of antique textiles in her work, along with traditional techniques, such as embroidery, tapestry and applique create an ongoing dialogue, a tension, between materialism and value, consumerism and memory.

About These Ge BA’s come from the collection of François Dautresme Chinese collaged, Ge Ba ephemeral textile “paintings” of extraordinary beauty made by women in China countryside in 1950. It is a collage of glued-together cloths that were cut and mainly used for making shoe soles or used as lining for clothing. In the early 1960s François Dautresme in one of his numerousness voyages to China, entered a small shop that sold everything made with secondhand fabric. In a dark corner of the shop, he noticed stacks of something so uncommon, something he had never seen before. Completely magnetized, he travelled to small villages and cities from the 1960s to the 1980s in quest of these magnificent collages. He shown to the world how magnificent is this art made by anonymous rural women in China, his collection has been exposed in a lot of museums all around the world as the Foundation Miro in 1995. These Ge Ba is part of his collection.

One of my most asked questions is: "How do you make animal eyes?" Animal eyes can seem intimidating, but they're actually easier than they look and so fun to make!

My adults really enjoyed the Shelli Walters Mixed-Media Flowers project we did, so I decided we could continue to explore her amazing collage art by focussing on her landscapes. This was a whole new challenge! Getting a landscape to look like a landscape, solely with collage papers, is much trickier than creating getting flowers to look like flowers. But we dived head-first into this project anyhow! Shelli Walters landscape Shelli Walters landscape We looked at Shelli's Oregon landscape collages, which depict craggy rock cliffs, winding streams, and mountains. Much of her inspiration comes from the wild landscapes of Oregon's Fort Rock State Park and the Oregon high desert. I wanted my adults to create an original piece in Shelli's style so I printed out photos of landscapes from these areas. What to think about when collaging a landscape: A. Collaging a landscape is tricky. I decided the important this was to ensure that our landscape had a defined foreground, middle ground and background, some kind of obvious rock cliffs or mountain, an area of water, and a defined sky. If all these elements are place, it would likely be unmistakable that we are depicting a landscape. B. Additionally, each area would have its defined color scheme, to separate it from the other areas: the sky would be cool color, the mountains and cliffs would be warm colors, the water would again be cools, and any tree or grassy area would be greens. This devision through color helps the eye wander through the picture and understand that we are looking at. C. The other important tip to consider when collaging a landscape, is to paste the papers in such a way that they mimic the direction, flow and shape of what's being represented. So the cliffs are pasted with vertical strips of roughly torn paper, and water is pasted in horizontal pieces of unevenly torn paper. D. No hard edge or corners should be uses. For a more organic shape, paper should be torn, not cut. F. Another key factor is to match the values in the landscape. This helps us separate and define the contours and the dimension of the different elements. Collage papers: We used a wide range of collage papers in every color and tone including book paper, grid paper, atlas paper, painted paper, plain colored paper and patterned decoupage paper. I also painted paper in warms tones (particularly, reds, oranges and browns) and in cool tones, as options for our rocks, grassy and water. We use acrylic gel medium for pasting, but mod podge would work too. The rule is 'paste under the collage paper, then over top again'. As a final touch, we used a tiny touch of diluted white acrylic paint to soften our sky, and a tiny bit of diluted brown, dark green or blue (or some other dark color) to enhance the dimension around some of our elements. We used acrylic gel medium to dilute our paint. Our goal was just to soften, push back, or deepen some areas with the paint, not to paint over the paper, so strongly diluted the paint was important. These turned out fabulously! My adults were seriously proud. It took us one 3-hour class.
Just grab a selection of fabric and paper scraps....... ........choose a few and layer them..... ......then add some stitching. My favourite pastime :-) Close ups..... I used my hand-made background papers (some on kitchen towel), gold lace (thank you Jacky ;-) text (thank you 'All Saints', who wrap purchases in the best tissue ever), dyed mulberry bark, random-dyed silk fabric, silk dupion, plus one of my favourite Paper Whimsy images which I machine stitched (very slowly ;-) I then glued the finished collage to a piece of painted ply wood. I have another sales outlet now...'.The Emporium' in Draycott. My daughter's shop opens in two weeks...more of that to come later. My journals are all stitched and ready..... The insides are decorated too.... ...and I'm thinking about making paper bands for them with my sticker on the back. Collaged postcards and tags next! In my last post I said I'd show you Peachy's next catch.Well this time it was a vole ...... and it was HUGE! I came downstairs and found it cowering by the conservatory door surrounded by what I thought was a pile of black rice. Thankfully the poor thing was unharmed........and Peachy was nowhere to be seen. No doubt he was bored by this catch and back in the woods looking for something more exciting. Of course, he tried to get round me later...... 'Love you Mum..........'
