Original artwork description:

I was very recently fortunate enough to be selected for an Artfinder Residency weekend in the North of France at Manoir de Botcol. I picked up heaps of new inspiration and ideas. At the Manoir there was this old tractor. It was absolutely fantastic and it was just crying out to be captured in a collage! The tractor has been machine embroidered onto an old vintage French linen fabric. All the little details are stitched. I have then used gouache to colour the tractor and some of the stones in the old barn in the background. I have embroidered a line of grass and then used gouache again to paint the rest of the grass.
The title of the collage has been embroidered on the front as has my signature. The collage is backed with a white cotton. I am selling this collage un-framed.

Materials used:

heavy cotton, embroidery, gouache, silly imagination
