🧐 Curious 🎨 Creative 💪🏻 Living Boldly! @idoamazingthings 😁 Content with wool in my hands Artisan weaver of blankets and wraps. Pop to my website

My weaving is deeply rooted in my experience. My remote journeys and experiences continue to move through me as I weave. 

Although weaving involves repetitive tasks, my movements are intentional and connected to my spirit, memory and experiences. Weaving for me is far more than a physical task. It is art; my voice through my hands. 

Thank you for joining in with me to guess where my memories are from for my current Series. Here are some more clues in the photographs.

  • Roadtrippin’ vintage car style. Our journeys aren’t your usual road trip, but tbh is the BEST way to experience the world. It’s tough. It’s exhausting. It’s incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. 

We would not have had the incredibly rich experiences with others throughout the world, had we been in a ‘normal’ vehicle or tour group. 

I would not have held the hands of women and hugged with acknowledgement of each other had we not been in our 100 year old ‘Penny’. 

Love to know the ways you’ve travelled where you’ve connected spontaneously with local people.

  • Every journey becomes part of who I am. Remote travel is my passion! 

I love the snow and have learned so much from my experiences in those cold environments.

I spent some time lying in the snow beside the forest waiting to be found when I injured and tore all my ligaments in my knee. 

In the silence between the snowflakes I learned how to breathe with the pain. 

I miss the snow and cold of the Arctic. I miss the icebergs and frozen seas. 

I can still however weave my stories, and this one is from my memories of skiing and what I learned in the snow amongst the pines.

“ᴡʜᴇʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴘɪʀɪᴛ ᴅᴏᴇꜱ ɴᴏᴛ ᴡᴏʀᴋ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴀɴᴅ ᴛʜᴇʀᴇ ɪꜱ ɴᴏ ᴀʀᴛ.” — ʟᴇᴏɴᴀʀᴅᴏ ᴅᴀ ᴠɪɴᴄɪ My weaving is deeply rooted in my experience. My remote journeys and experiences continue to move through me as I weave.  Although weaving involves repetitive tasks, my movements are intentional and connected to my spirit, memory and experiences. Weaving for me is far more than a physical task. It is art; my voice through my hands.  Thank you for joining in with me to guess where my memories are from for my current Series. Here are some more clues in the photographs.  DM your guess where you think this place is. Looking forward to reading where you think! #artcollector #artisanmade #uniquegiftideas #heirloomgift #weavingart

The lines hold meaning. 

Privileged to be able to weave alongside the lines drawn in Abbie Loy’s Body  Painting 2012, and @sallyblakeartist Sacred Thought. 

@qingfibre Lemon is the most wonderful yellow, forming the story lines in my warp.

Roadtrippin’ vintage car style. Our journeys aren’t your usual road trip, but tbh is the BEST way to experience the world. It’s tough. It’s exhausting. It’s incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. We would not have had the incredibly rich experiences with others throughout the world, had we been in a ‘normal’ vehicle or tour group. I would not have held the hands of women and hugged with acknowledgement of each other had we not been in our 100 year old ‘Penny’. Love to know the ways you’ve travelled where you’ve connected spontaneously with local people.

Every journey becomes part of who I am. Remote travel is my passion! I love the snow and have learned so much from my experiences in those cold environments. I spent some time lying in the snow beside the forest waiting to be found when I injured and tore all my ligaments in my knee. In the silence between the snowflakes I learned how to breathe with the pain. I miss the snow and cold of the Arctic. I miss the icebergs and frozen seas. I can still however weave my stories, and this one is from my memories of skiing and what I learned in the snow amongst the pines.
