Landscapes in small sizes

Some years ago I read an essay by Olga Tokarczuk on her relationship with trees. She was dreaming about the machine that would be able to recreate stories witnessed by old trees through their life. I immediately "saw" this kind of gramophone and the songs it could play. The many different small worlds rising and falling around the same tree for 200 or 600 years.
It was fun to create all the variety of small landscapes, with little details here and there.
I love to create landscapes in small formats and they are always more about emotions than the real views. Here are the most recent ones - "Golden fields"
This one is framed and available HERE.
And "Beyond my garden" - ready to frame, heavy embroidered beauty in tones of pink.

Pomysł miałas świetny! Krajobrazy są piękne; z większej odleglosci łatwiejsze do odbioru, jako widoki. Jeszcze raz powtórzę - jako całośc mega pomysł!

'Golden fields' przepiękne!

The hen in troubles

Image
Sometimes things are simply overwhelming... I can only guess that keeping balance for this little hen is quite a challenge. But she keeps her face straight. The amount of dishes is truly impressive. To dive or not to dive? Maybe just looking will do the job? But the water seems so joyful and friendly... So maybe, just maybe, all the troubles will turn out to be manageable? Courage, little hen!

Botanical laces / Botaniczne koronki

Image
I told you about my love for laces before ( HERE ). Maybe I wasn't clear, but in fact I see laces everywhere. Wspominałam już wcześniej o mojej miłości do koronek (choćby TU ). Nie wiem jednak, czy macie świadomość, że ja je widzę wszędzie. This artwork from 2008, named "My Way" is the first one where I decided to show it off. W tej tkaninie z 2008, zatytułowanej "Moja droga" zdecydowałam się to ujawnić publicznie.  As you can see,  my laces are a combination of lace patterns and botanical patterns. Jak widzicie, moje koronki to taka kombinacja wzorów koronkowych z roślinnymi. I collect botanical books even longer than lace books. And I use them for inspirations pretty often. Atlasy botaniczne zbieram jeszcze dłużej niż ksiązki o koronkach. I używam jako inspiracji zaskakująco często. For example these trees from my current big project are in fact... Na przykład te drzewa z mojego obecnego "dużego" projektu są w istocie... ... gr

Old Garden collection / Ogrodowa kolekcja

Image
Do you remember my mysterious "Old Garden" ? Now I call it finished! Next time when I start something like this, please remind me that it is not the fastest kind of work :) Pamiętacie mój tajemniczy "Stary Ogród" ? Uważam go za skończony! A następnym razem, jak się wezmę za coś takiego, przypomnijcie mi proszę, że to nie jest ekspresowa robótka :) But I have to confess - I love it! And I'm really glad that I made it. Ale przyznaję - uwielbiam go! I bardzo się cieszę, że zrobiłam coś takiego. I'm going to frame it professionally and put on a honorable place on the wall. With the pieces like this it is impossible to sell it - there's no money I would prefer to keep instead of this magical garden. It's not just the matter of the amount of time spent on this. It is more about my thoughts, some ideas and their execution, it is so much "me". Mam zamiar dać go do oprawy, a potem powiesić na honorowym miejscu. Takie rzeczy nie nada
