I transform textiles, print with lino and use metal from drinks cans to make colourful wall hangings

Hi I'm Vicky at ARTstrings ❤️. I like to transform and upcycled stuff. I create in my garden shed in the beautiful Devon countryside. I am an animal lover and have an adopted 14 year old cat called Marley who is often helping me in the workroom. My beautiful late mum inspired me to sew from any early age. I mainly make wall hangings by painting and distressing free/upcycled fabrics. I heat up drinks cans which enables me to draw on them to emboss a design and put them through Nina, my sewing machine. I love paper and felt making, rolling up paper beads to paint in rich colours, making polymer clay tiles to glue on or mosaic, cutting lino designs and printing them onto any available surface including clay, wood, fabric and paper. I have a thing for all wildlife especially Hares, Hummingbirds and Owls. I often use circles in my work to represent the moon and celebrate the Goddess and nature. If there is leather or suede in my work it has been acquired for free but I will normally state when used. I hope you like my creations as much as I love making them. You'll find me on facebook @ARTstrings, Instagram as artstringsbyvicky . and on Pinterest. Phew!, if you made it through all that, thank you for your interest. Vic xx
