Creativity Scrapbook

This is not really a diary, but rather and accumulation of art, whether it be painting, poetry, sewing, photography or any other creative endeavour of mine... though it may occasionally contain some stuff I've been thinking... If you are interested in buying an original or a print or commissioning art, feel free to contact me.

I love painting, photography, children and nature. If you would like to visit my Facebook page, it is Keryn Bloxham Artist. Or simply Google Keryn Bloxham :) I hope you enjoy reading through the blogs here. For other artists I sometimes include a few tips which I hope you find helpful when creating your own art :) Keryn

Mosaics

This is my first attempt at mosaics. I found an old broken tile, so broke it up a whole lot more, rearranged all the bits and stuck them on and grouted it.
Ended up doing it twice, as the wood bowed pretty badly because I forgot a step in the process - helpful hint, if you do mosaics on wood and are using cement adhesive, PVA the surface first!! :)

Pakiri


Here's a painting I did for a friend in September 2007, with acrylics and sand on stretched canvas. It's of Pakiri, where we went for a wonderfully warm holiday in August!

Clock

I was stoked when my brother gave me a clock frame to put my own picture in! So this is my first pastel painting - of a horse I saw while riding through Taumarunui.
