@insearchoffaerienuff welcome! 👏👏Give me a shout if you need any help. Advice - do a # introduction post, follow hashtags, take a look at who I follow and follow any that appeal. There&#39;s no algorithm so your feed can look empty to begin with but it soon fills up!

#WIPWednesday this week is framing 😊 I have completed my winter commission and the frame arrived last week. I hope to share full images soon but in the meantime zoom in to see the frosty twinkle in this teaser shot ❄️ I&#39;m pleased with my mount choice as it perfectly sets off the snow @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt #LandscapePainting

My first Mastodon eyeball today! (If that&#39;s the correct phrase? That&#39;s what we used to say on CB radio) @webidebi came to Belper Arts Trail so we have now met IRL! I am ridiculously excited about this 🤣 A Mastodon first that I definitely want to repeat (I do realise the difficulty for those of you on different continents 😉) I&#39;m hopeless at selfies so I&#39;ll just share a pic of my stand during a brief lull between visitors - a great show! 👍 @textileart @fiberarts #A...

I&#39;m deep in prep for #BelperArtsTrail now and have just framed 2 new mixed media artworks which will make their debut there. These gel prints on fabric with stitch embellishment are £70 each or £125 for the pair. Worth seeing IRL if you can make it to Belper 3 or 4 May @textileart @fiberarts #TextileTuesday #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #CreativeToots #BuyIntoArt #FediGiftShop #ArtForSale #ArtMarke...

I wasn&#39;t happy with the framing of Emerald Summer in Ruby Wood - too heavy a frame and too dark mount. So I have re-framed it with a lighter, grey mount and a narrower moulding (more views here https://cognissart.co.uk/emerald-summer-in-ruby-wood ) I hope it works better now, I&#39;ll have it with me at Belper Arts Trail in 2 weeks time @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #woodland #trees #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediAr...

I&#39;ve been updating my website and have added prints taken from Hand Wash, No Spin. See https://cognissart.co.uk/product-category/limited-edition-giclee-prints/ I will have these, and the original, with me at #BelperArtsTrail 2/3 May (https://cognissart.co.uk/belper-arts-trail/) @textileart @fiberarts #MeetTheArtist #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt #LandscapePainting

I&#39;m happy with this now, blocked and stretched ready for framing. However I haven&#39;t got a name for it. It&#39;s an autumnal view of Sheepwash Bridge in Ashford in the Water, near Bakewell in Derbyshire. I usually have a play on words for my titles but I&#39;m struggling for inspiration. Any ideas? @textileart @fiberarts #AskFedi #askmastodon #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt #Landsca...

Spent a pleasant day chopping up coffee sacks kindly donated to me by Buxton Coffee Roasters. I had an abstract urge and used a bag from our regular coffee order for a little study which I hope to frame tomorrow. Does anyone remember Issy Noho? #ChildOfTheSeventies 🤣 @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #coffee #abstract #the70s #70sTV

Before I forget! For #FirstFridayArtWalk with @DoomsdaysCW this month I give you &quot;70s vibe&quot; An abstract on recycled coffee sack inspired by childhood memories from the 70s. I find abstract a great way of visualising my #ADHD brain&#39;s random musings 🙃 Hopefully this will be on display, and for sale, at Derbyshire Emporium in Bakewell from tomorrow. @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #AbstractArt #the70s #embroidery #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #Fed...

I think my commission may be finished. Again, it needs to sit on the back of the sofa for a bit. I&#39;m not sharing the full image just yet, here is a teaser of a bit you haven&#39;t seen so far. @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt #LandscapePainting #snow #snowscene #winter #wintertrees #winterlandscape #snowylandscape #snowscape

Just examining the &quot;butt&quot; of my current #wip and it reminds me of those little green and blue sweets which were seed shaped and felt like they were made of polystyrene 🤣 Another 70s flashback!

A little one for #WIPWednesday Almost there, but needs a little tweaking and blocking. I am experimenting with small scale, less detailed and more abstracted images. @textileart @fiberarts #autumn #woodland #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt #LandscapePainting

Another little piece I&#39;ve been working on, Bluebells Study #1 . I have an exhibition later in the year entitled &quot;Into the Woods&quot; at the Woodland Discovery Centre in Ecclehall Woods, Sheffield. All the work on display will be woodland inspired and this is me making a start 😊 @textileart @fiberarts #Art #FineArtInStitch #TextileArt #bluebells #abstract #AbstractArt #embroidery #fineart #ContemporaryArt #MastoArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #FediArt #artist #scape #LandscapeArt...
