People...I get asked all the time...do i do flowers....dah...when I started to design in the early 70's flowers and pooh bear was the ticket...along with really scary birds....something about birds in needlepoint that is imposing and just plain scary...that is why I have the little cute round stylized birds in Squiggee Designs ( see top picture...my bluebird)...anything else is just creepy to me...but game birds ducks and all sorts were popular when I first started in the business...
I have painted almost every flower you can name ...in all sorts of venues...rugs...pillows...purses......small ,medium large and extra large like the three 20" sq pillows on 10st at the top of the page...what I call big A-S pillows.....something you can get your teeth into....
so when a customer, shop or just someone on crack asks me.." have you done any flowers" and I faint don't be surprised...mostly I just roll my eyes and say in in a sweet voice..." well yes I have at times"....I know now body likes a smarty pants...
