HAPPY NEW YEAR

Time to start again

Shedding the old, making space for new ideas, new adventures, new thoughts, new people, new expierences, that will make my life green. (I took this photo during one of my walks around Dubai).

New year's exchange-away

I have some Bunka Embroidery kits which have been in my studio for years. Yesterday I finally admitted that I'm never going to actually do them. So I thought what better than to exhange them with any interested blog-friends. But, I have to let you know that I'm not sure if the kits are complete, although I think they are. So it's an as is deal. If you're interested, and would like to trade for some ATC's or similar of your own, leave a comment under this post. I'll just take the first 4 offers I receive. Deadline will be 12midnight Dubai time 31 December.

Merry Christmas

To everyone celebrating Christmas today, many happy returns - I hope you will give a thought to the Christians (and others) in Beith Lahim, the birth place of Jesus, as they are still suffering under occupation and probably did not have such a Merry Christmas for years now.

I dare you to tell me a story

Photo from my trip to Paris in the summer

I was stunned when I saw this window front. It looks like it could have been one of my collages with images and texts - just the way I love them!

Acrylic Adventures

Intuitive and spontaneous, created as I had some time at CAFFE NERO at the Festival City, Dubai. I just love the feeling of freedom in creating this.

Book Giveaway

Following capitalist trends :-), with the year coming to an end, I am giving away 20 signed copies of my Arabic collection of short stories (The Scent of Cardomon) to the first 20 UAE residents who leave a comment with their postal and email addresses under the giveaway post on my GypsyExpress blog here.
