Some time ago I ran across an unusual photo on a BBC website. It’ s supposed to be a picture of two doormats that have become frozen and frosted, but it looks far too much like a work of art just to be an accidental picture – I think the house-owner must have been doing some work of his (her?) own in order to make such an interesting image
Frozen doormats or works of art?
Anyway it looked so much like a black and-white image of leaves and flowers that I couldn’t resist using it as inspiration for a coloured version of the same subject. OK, I know it isn’t anywhere like the original, but it was fun to do, and it might make a nice mat or chair cushion
Inspired by an icy mat
Hi Mia, interesting frozen door mats. I like your cushion idea or an apron panel maybe, very pretty.
This is very stylish, and the colors are very cheerful. I think you should do a pillow so you can see it regularly and smile at it. It would make a nice centerpiece on a valance in the window, or you could make several copies across it if you have a large window. I think you should have it where you can see it, whatever you do with it. You could put it on the back of a jacket but then you wouldn’t be able to see it, so you would have to put some parts on the front.

Love it! Great work, as always.
Love it! Almost tempted to do your design in monochrome. Almost. I wonder if the doormats were those thin, embossed versions and the snow/frost stayed on the fibre tops while the lines showed black? It seems improbable these patterns could just appear by themselves otherwise; but if the homeowner did it, he or she is quite the artist! Beautiful, anyway. Thanks for sharing your lovely interpretation!
These flowers are beautiful and one of your best groupings I can remember. This would be great on all the things listed, but a tote-bag with this or a shopping bag would really catch the eye of shoppers.
Very nice work. I enjoy your flower creations and critters.
I love it
I love this! Lovely colors and so much movement! I would pop this in a frame because it is a work of art!
This is simply elegant! I do love your work and your ability to take inpiration from so so many places!
