I was inspired to create this portrait by the hand-felted scarf we found yesterday in Wolseley.

Perhaps not quite the right model… I suspect a swan necklace is urgently required. 😏

But I really like the maker’s idea: that dramatic tall collar gives it a wonderfully theatrical, slightly aristocratic feeling — very “antique, revisited.”

A little Renaissance court, a little eccentric fashion experiment.

Don’t you agree?

This post is about a very unique piece of art, done by Bernadine. The driftwood ( which comes from the island of Bali) is 20 inches long, and 8 inches wide. It has a slit in the centre, which holds a piece of very thick heavy glass. On this she has painted a beautiful beach scene, and to make it much more challenging, the other side has a different painted beach scene.
Painting 2 different scenes on glass is not an easy thing, and the result is a stunning piece of unique art, only here at the Wolseley Gallery. Come in and see it 😍

This post is about art using homemade paper. True paper making began in China around 105 AD. They mixed h**p, bark, old rags and fishing nets with water, mashed them into a pulp, then pressed into thin sheets. Now that’s recycling!!
China kept the technique secret for centuries, but by the 6th and 7th century it was introduced to Korea and Japan. It didn’t reach Europe till the 11th to 13th century, replacing animal skin parchment.
For centuries paper was made using rags and plant fibres, but by the 15th century, the printing press was invented.
By the 19th century, they started using wood pulp, making paper cheap and available for mass production.
Nowadays many artists like to make their own paper, adding things like thread, flower petals, and fibres resulting in very unique and decorative paper.
There are many designer type papers available like mulberry, origami, vellum, albacc, washi and many more.

So besides creating beautiful art on vintage hand saws, 🪚Bernadine also repurposes many other items, including circular saws, and old discarded 78 records.
Circular saws were invented in the late 18th century, and were mainly used in the saw mills, but now they are one of the most used type of saw.
Unlike the circular saw, the old 78 records are a blast from the past. They were popular from the early 1900s until the late 1940s and shaped the foundation of the modern music industry. Made of mainly shellac, these heavy discs spun at about 78 RPMs and could only hold about 3 minutes of music per side. This birthed the standard 3 minute pop song, still popular today.
By the 1960s, the old 78s were obsolete and were left in the dust, to collect dust.

So what is one to do with all of these unwanted items? Well, you give them new life, of course.
Besides just painting on them, Bernadine has turned them into clocks- making them beautiful and practical.
Reusing, recycling and repurposing, that’s us here at the Wolseley Gallery .🤔🤗

This post is on more of Kelly’s artwork in the Wolseley Gallery. But first a little history lesson on knives🔪
The knife is one of humanity’s oldest tools, dating back to atleast 2.5 million years. The early humans chipped rocks like flint and obsidian to use for hunting.
By 3000 BC, the Bronze Age introduced soft metals which could be shaped but dulled quickly.
By 1200 BC, the Iron Age had harder metals that rusted easily.
By 300 BC the Romans, developed the earliest known folding pocket knive. These featured a iron blade, folding spike, fork, spatula and a toothpick!! Must have been a pretty big knife!!
the 1300’s and 1500’s European companies started making kitchen and utility tools.
In 1913, Harry Beatles invented stainless steel, which stopped the rusting problems and improved manufacturing methods.
Then by the 2000’s with advanced powder metallurgy and modern locking methods, high performance pocket and tactical knives were produced.( Tactical knives are those multi purpose tools used by the military and law enforcement)
