Millie Moth

Millie Moth My colourful flower artwork is inspired by my wild garden and the joy I feel when I’m amongst flowers & foliage.

I work with 2 techniques - alcohol ink pens onto Yupo paper with splashes of isopropyl alcohol, or by creating layered digital collages.

🍁 There’s a definite shift towards autumn in the air isn’t there? Usually I’m feeling quite down now as summer fades. But this year I’m determined to enjoy every season for what it is. Right now I’m enjoying the cooler temperatures (as I’m sure we all are!) and the subtle golden tinge to the light. And I’m definitely enjoying the cosiness as I wrap a fleecy blanket around myself as the nights begin to draw in. But I’m also trying to focus on what is now, and not what I’m losing, or mourning what I didn’t do.

🍁 I feel there’s so much to look forward to this autumn. I’m so excited about exhibiting my work at Art in the Gardens in Sheffield’s Botanical Gardens on the 5th & 6th Sept, then at Wirksworth Festival the following weekend. I’ve actually decided to take a week off after that to just potter round the house! Unheard of 🤣 Usually my “days off” are things I have to do, or because I’m so tired I just fall asleep! Millie Moth work nearly always manages to creep in somewhere during the day. This autumn it’s time for boundaries and proper time off! 😁 Yay! Bring it on!

🍁 I’ve been very busy recently getting all my Autumn Trees and Christmas Cards workshops in place. Everything is more or less done now and all dates and venues are up to date on my website if you’d like to have a browse or place a booking. I’m so thrilled to be taking a week off before they start so I’ll feel lovely and fresh to share all the magic of alcohol inks with you using rich autumn colours! Good times ahead 😊🎨

🍁 Enjoy the good times now too 🌾

🎨 Had a fab day today with my lovely talented friend Dawn Feeney Copper! We did a spot of co-working round hers so the table was covered in alcohol ink pens and little cut outs of copper! Very inspiring to work together and great to catch up and swap ideas. And Dawn makes the most amazing clotted cream scones! Must do this more often! Thanks Dawn 😘

I’m really looking forward to doing this collaborative workshop with Annie from Tissington Craft Corner & On A Wick & A Prayer! Places are limited so don’t hang around if you’d like to come along! 😘

🎨 I’m off to Sheffield today to see Mum & Dad but my 6 new canvases were delivered early this morning so I did a quick unwrapping video of undoing half of them (not got time for all as got to set off soon! 😁). I like to save the wrap so I can reuse it when my precious babies find their new homes! I’m all for reusing and reducing waste where possible. Especially when they’re cut to the perfect size already! I then store them upstairs in my little craft storage room in some special silver art bags which are amazing and keep them well protected. I need to write on the back of them next but that’s for another day. I gotta get going now! Have a lovely day! 😘

🎨 I love it when a workshop is full of oohs, aahs and laughter! It was such a fab workshop Bettys Sewing Box, Ashbourne in Betty’s Vintage Tearoom in Ashbourne yesterday with this amazing group of women! Everyone really loved what they were doing and created some gorgeous pieces. Can’t wait for next Tuesday’s session there now! 😊🫖☕️🍰🎨
