Recent News – I Created a Show-Stopping Shawl for Stevie Nicks
I recently created a luscious silk shawl to submit in a competition hosted by Talenthouse. The brief was to create a show-stopping shawl for Stevie Nicks. The winner is to be personally selected by the amazing singer/musician herself and the runner up is to be chosen by public vote.
This is the piece I submitted and the public voting has now closed. Within the next two weeks Stevie Nicks will personally look at all the entries and select an outright winner to do a photoshoot with.
It was a delight to realise this design and I so I have collected the photos I took along the way and created the animated video you can see further up on this page. I will also be compiling a blog post to share the porcess with you in a very visual way. I always love to see the huge difference between the very first brush strokes and layer and then the final look.
This has definitely been a huge inspiration for me to explore creating further larger format silks with rich vibrant colours and intricate designs. And it has opened my mind to different possibilities of creating a shawl or wrap that can be freely worn as a piece of clothing.
If you would like your own shawl created in this style or with a completely different look, please get in touch so that we can make it all happen for you.
