Discovering Toni Burt!



This week, I have been studying the work of Toni Burt. Bit late to the party as usual, but her work both speaks to me and inspires me.
Here is a piece that combines the simple drawing of a face, some collage papers, stamping,watercolours and text.
After I created her face I started to weave a story for her. She has a very wistful look upon her face and it made me wonder what lost opportunities she is pondering!
I often veer toward a neutral palette, and felt that I could share this in "A Vintage Journey" challenge, which, this month is concentrating on a neutral palette.

  1. This is beautiful, Hazel. Such a gentle expression in her eyes, and the warm neutrals, with just those blushes of colour, are really lovely. Thanks so much for joining us on A Vintage Journey.
