Art work: Mimi Spirits by Thompson Nganjmirra - Mimi spirits are nonphysical beings who have been present and active since Creation and are attributed to the Kunwinjku people, of Kakadu. This blog has been developed to display my work for the City and Guild Level III Certificate in Embroidery with Sian Martin of Distant Stitch and other interesting photos of Australia and inspirations from my travels around the world.

Chapter 2 Module 1
Coloured papers and cut paper shapes showing the colour range of violets, lime greens, reds, greens, red/orange and torquoise. Papers coloured with inks in torquoise, violet, green, pink, rust, peach and oranges. Some papers sponged with sea sponge in tints of base colour eg. violet and violet tint.
Paper cross shapes using scissors, torn paper and decorative scissors. Interwoven shapes form interesting patterns. Paper used includes: cartridge paper, tissue, kitchen towelling and phone books. Stamped paper from hand made rubber stamp using acrylic and bronze paints. Some interesting effects with 'shadow' printing where outline is stronger than centre printed area. Need to ensure that thick edges do not form on stamp. Colours used: torquoise, bronze, green, yellow.
