Day 19 of #marchmeetthemaker is #Can'tLiveWithout - For me the big thing is sleep, if I don't get enough sleep and feel tired then I can't do anything. - I used to be a night time person but actually since I started working night shifts a few years ago my sleeping pattern is all over the place so I just sleep when I can, when I need to. - This 3D acrylic painting is of my Dexter sleeping. - - #meetthemaker #meettheartist #behindthescenes #aboutme #abouttheartist #aboutthemaker #yorkshireartist #yorkshiremaker #artist #maker #creative #painter #sleep #art #sleeping #catpainting #3Dacrylicpainting #cat #painting #cute #lovecats #catlover #artistlife #mylifeasanartist #sleeptime #sleepisimportant #getenoughsleep (at Knottingley)

Hello! Here’s a picture of my mug coz I haven’t said hi for a while! 😜 Thought I’d get a #meetthemaker in before the end of January, does that still count as New Year?! I’m Nade 👋 and I started OATM because I absolutely hate waste and love creating so pretty much everything is made from preloved fabric, beads, & thread, even the needles, hoops and my watercolour paints! I spend a lot of time at markets, car boots & charity shops looking for items that I can modify, (hence the name!!) Swipe for a few bits I bought recently to destroy and reassemble into something new! I’ve always loved being creative, many moons ago I studied for my degree in Applied & Media Art, mostly with free motion machine embroidery 🧵 and silk painting. I absolutely love colour & pattern and my dream goal is to write & illustrate a children’s nonsensical book! 📚 Anyhoo, thank you so much for your support, likes , kind comments and for following my story , I hope to have something cool up really soon! #watchthisspace #februarychallenge #thursdayintroductions #orbreyandthemodist #aboutthemaker #textileartist #textileartistsofinstagram #watercolourjanuary #abstractcollage #childrensillustrations #dreambigger #fibrearts #handembroidery #societyofembroideredwork #sewing #embroidery #embroideryart #stitchedartisart #handmadehour #fabstractfeb #fabstractfebruary #embroideryartist #hertsetsyteam #hitchin #letchworth #britishcrafters #ukcrafters #craftville #colourlover (at Hitchin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B79NIpBnB-U/?igshid=mj7868ss8ejz
