Since Squiggee designs has only been around since 2004, some people only associate my designing with that line...little gingerbread houses, strange Witchy Woos..and lots of small designs with a little twist...but I have been around since Moses was a boy...lol ..well not that long...but when you having been painting needlepoint for 39 years..and seen every trend imaginable......... the business change from the cozy to big extravaganza....you have painted the full range of canvases...above you will see the medieval tapestries based on the old Cluney Tapestries that are part of my gcHendrix line....at one time it was all the rage and it interested me.
Like all artists something will peek or tweak your imagination and off you go on a toot...you explore that particular style or content...do your thing and get it out of you system ......then off to another phase...this is what keeps you fresh and prevent you from becoming pigeon holed as an artist ...even Squiggee has evolved from the first tiny paw print canvas that started it all....see photo above....
I like to see a change happening all the time, even though I am probably in the Winter or late Fall of my painting career.....lol......I would like to go on till my last breathe but we as humans have no control over that....so on with the dance.........!!!! the exciting part is that you never know what will grab me next and take me to the next phase of designing....that is what makes life oh so sweet..the unknown........bitching as we say here in Squiggeeland...just bitching !!!!!
FYI...see mr. Squiggee's blog for the Big Tapestry...!!!!
