Sea inspired creation 靈感自海洋

I'm lucky I live in the area surrounded by ocean with undulating mountains.  My work always inspired by nature.  This wool felt box I made with the inspiration of sea and wave. 

海洋 - 水、 浪給予創作靈感, 香港的山與水美不勝收, 這個赤柱灘頭經常是我流連之地, 閒日更感悠閒. 這個羊毛盒子就是這海浪影子中完成.

 

The lid with silk string like water, embellished with the local picked coral.

Tide in tide out...

Solo woman on the beach .....

 

Listening to the echo of wave......

 

Friends know my area but new readers may interest to see more.

The is Stanley where I own a tiny studio. Sometimes after a stuff finished I like to take shots and stroll around in weekdays. Here're a few bays and beaches.  All formed stunning environment.  When I'm there I imagine I'm in somewhere facing the Mediterranean 

 

A pier, fishing boats, fishermen drying their hunts on the rock.

 

Boats need a rest in the winter

 

Row of typical fishermen houses, now is private property. 

The views may particularly impressive to Judy G.

The day I took the images of the trinket box, I received a parcel from the States.  Judy G of CJStitchingand Blooms was so kind to send me the beautiful things of her handmade crochet bowl, washing cloth, wool batt, yarns, shell, beads.....

The yarns of turquoise are so pretty. I'll definitely do another stuff related to ocean with these wool and yarns.

Treasure under 裙下小寶藏

 

From scratch to this little girl I made with the basic Paverpol -  fabric craft. I would say this is my new mixed media creation.

Pavepol與羊毛做成的混合媒體製作是我近期的人形布藝創作, 把羊毛與絲料做成質感裙子, Teeswater原羊毛做頭髮, 蜷曲自然,  小娃裙下有風光........

  

Paverpol is liquid which fabric is dipped and wrapped around wired skeleton to form a figurine. After dried it becomes harden.  My last post of making.

 

This time I made a smaller one.  The body wrapped with fabric and painted in white acrylic.  The nuno felt dress with strips and merino wool on the surface and black mulberry silk on the top. 

 

After a little time of rolling and fulling, the  nuno felt dress is done.  I put on the body.

 

I made the little book with my natural imprints and a cover with euc leaves.

Treasure underneath..........

 

The figurine is sitting on the top of a procelain egg shaped trinket box.

I like to make something decorative and  functional.  My friend gave me this little box.  Thought a doll sitting on it makes a nice pose.  That's why I made it.

實用小擺設是我較喜愛的手作, 這裙下風光藏著小寶盒.

 

Whisper.....

Mogi, "little girl you dropped the book and your rings....."

 

Mogi likes sitting here in a sunny day..........

 

and me too, love reading in my sanctuary.

What are you doing these days.
