Found in Nature

My watercolour portrays girl in multi coloured costume.

I made an opera themed art journal.  This page was inspired by Donna Elvira from Don Giovanni.  Mixed media, mostly acrylics.

My watercolour painting is of a young Berber woman in traditional costume.
Silver coins were often used to adorn headgear and could be removed and sold if necessary.

"Snap!" - crayon & graphite

I used watercolour pencils and a bit of paint to create my girls in their traditional welsh costumes. We all loved wearing our costumes on St.David's Day (also my birthday!) 

A veiled lady, using watercolours at our u3a art group. Inspired by our u3a belly dancing group.

Old doll in National Costume ,although I am not sure which country she represents

Ballerina by the window.Watercolour.I struggled with this one and it shows!

A pencil drawing of a graceful ballet dancer wearing her ballet costume. Sometimes it is good to do a black & white drawing using the pencil for various shadings.

Since meeting Henry Higgins the English matador (who was actually Columbian, and a dreadful flirt) in Andalusia in the 60’s and being invited by him to tour Spain dancing the flamenco I have been fascinated by all things Spanish and particularly Flamenco.
Incidentally Henry died in a hangliding accident in 1978.

As a ballet lover I love the costumes - this is a representation of Swan Lake in acrylic. 

Party time anyone? Hostess available.

South American costumes has always fascinated me, including the punk-like feather headdress I used gouache paints on paper.

Loosely inspired by the upcoming Strictly 2023  season. My vibrant permanent marker pens show my salsa-inspired outfit. Just a shame I can neither fit into it nor be famous enough to star in it.
