Beach Art and Stitched Post Cards

 We have just come back from our holiday in a friends caravan down at the lizard in Cornwall.
I have to say that luck was with us as it was probably the only full week this year that hasn't had rain. We even got in a few sunny beach days and i managed a possible tan line if you look close enough.
This fantastic bit of art was on the beach at Cadwith. A local artist had been there in the morning and I managed to get a few photos before the tide came in.
When I went back in the evening there was no trace of the work left so i feel very privileged to have been there to capture her work.
I also saw this mini exhibition at the seal sanctuary in Gweek.
The artist Jane Rose runs marine litter art workshops and makes a 10% donation to the marine conservation society with ever piece of art she sells. You can look at more of her work at www.janerose.beachlitter@gmail.com .


I also finished, and posted my textile art post card when down there.
Remember my post a few weeks back.
I mentioned that I had joined a link up were a group of us all made post cards ( see stitchin fingers link )
this was my final card called summer storms.
I believe I am receiving my stitched post card from Australia so that's quite exciting.


I'll finish with this snap shot of the kids on the beach lets hope we get a few more beach days in before the winter arrives.
