This is the piece I made for Sam for Art of the Month.
A little , ok alot, Mirka Mora inspired.
Which got me musing about people that inspire me and why.
Mirka ofcourse is one… maybe its because of her age (i like to have a role model for women who live life so fully) her attitude, her family AND her Art that I’m drawn to her.
I’ve also been loving Freida Kahlo’s journals….
and been reading Niki’s World to my daughter using her visual journal techniques as inspiration too.
Thats just a few.

It was Mirka Mora’s dolls that insired me in the mid sevenites, and now I cant wait to read her biography. Gorgeous doll.
