The honour of your vote is once again graciously requested - plus new items and designs

There are quite the number of entries to this popular "Mandala" challenge this week so get yourself a cuppa and settle down before you vote. As usual I had great fun designing this pattern and am pleased with the result of the layout I entered to Spoonflower.
Many thanks in advance for your time!

The March challenges for Spoonflower were right up my street as they were all based on geometry and for someone who fell asleep during maths class every time it is quite funny that I end up doing a lot of geometry and calculating in my artwork. There is one more geometric design I'll be doing for the challenge the week after next - based on hexagons - I will start that design today and see where it leads me!

In the meantime I am starting to populate my online shops with collections based on my Coronet Mandala pattern which, as you well know if you're familiar with my work, I love to mix and match with other backgrounds and motifs from previous designs - here are links to the start of those groupings

 and I will be adding this collection to my ARTofWHERE shop shortly 

Durable Isobar wallpaper is now available in my
 ROOSTERY HOME shop
"A versatile custom-printed wallpaper with a stunning subtle leathered texture.
Custom printed Isobar Durable will bring a splash of color and sophistication to any residential or commercial space with it’s low-sheen matte finish.
Isobar Durable features scrub and scratch resistant performance making it ideal for use in all environments subject to wear and tear, from playrooms and bathrooms to restaurants and office spaces. This PVC-free, FSC Certified wallpaper also features mold, mildew and water resistance.
Isobar un-pasted double rolls measure 25” wide by 27’ long and are designed to be double-cut for a final install width of 24”. We recommend you work with a professional paper installer for consultation, estimation and installation."

 and in my CURIOOS shop I have a wonderful die-cut metal print available "Rainbow Candy Geometric" - unique and in a limited quantity
All the grey spaces you see between the shapes are actually cut outs in the metal!

On a totally different tack I think I have found the car of my dreams - I kept seeing this cute little vehicle on Instagram posts and went on a Google search to find out it is a Nissan Figaro - I don't think they make them anymore but they did come in such lovely pastel colours - and here of course is my fave - the perfect pink.


Thanks for reading and be in touch - I'll be posting my Hexagon design in a couple of weeks - thanks so much for taking the time to vote for me this week - I do appreciate it SO MUCH
