This was made from original saucy seaside postcards, If you want to have a go you need to soak the postcards overnight , then peel them apart, then gently rub away the excess paper until its thin enough to collage it does take a long time but I love the end result.

Beautiful!
Are all those saucy seaside postcards vintage?
How long did this take to make? And do you work on more than one thing at a time or one by one?
Is the chair sitable or for display purposes only?

yes the postcards are all vintage, I do tend to work on more than one thing at a time because of drying times but one chair from beginning to end takes me about 3 months in saying that, I do have two kiddly cuties demanding quite a bit of my time. Yes the possibilities are endless which is the reason im crawling out of my wee snail shell and putting on my first solo exhibition , its in april thank god because the place is huge and ive got a hell of a lot of work to do
