Hello, I’m Evelyn, and this is my Folksy shop, Dixie’s Creations.
Alone, but never lonely, I work from my craft room, in Belfast and in true crafty fashion; my workspace is not always the tidiest place. It’s jam packed with my stash of paints, waxes, pastes, laces, pearls, metal pieces, flowers, seashells – an endless list of goodies all competing for space. Primo and Manny, my two beautiful house cats, often visit me to climb over my works in progress or looking for a cuddle on my lap.
I was inspired to dip my toe into the world of mixed media three dimensional collage and altered art after seeing a video posted by Anna Dabrowska, a Polish artist, who now teaches wonderful classes throughout the world. What I loved about her approach was that she used found odd discarded bits and pieces, and, with her wonderful imagination, turned them beautiful art objects.
All my items are original and handcrafted, turning a blank canvas, or wooden heart, or an artist’s palette into something desirable, using a mix of beautiful metallic paints, mica pigment and waxes to colour everyday objects that might otherwise be discarded - old keys, safety pins, strands of lace or tissue paper. I love to bring rich texture and beautiful luminous colour to all my pieces.
You can find me on Facebook.
Thanks for looking at my shop and I hope you will find something that you love here.
