My first “JOY” picture was made for a graphic design project during my Foundation Art and Design course. Over a few days I jotted down loads of words and phrases to remind me of the things that make me glad to be alive –some are fairly generic and some are quite personal to me. I love looking back over what I wrote as it makes me smile to remember there are so many things to make me cheerful. I’m also shocked to find things in there I can’t remember writing!
I’ve since done music and parenthood related pictures as presents for friends and have been commissioned to make pictures too.
I've put together a box of joy which I hope to sell - maybe at the Superfluity Exhibition or at a Clutter City (local crafty event). The box contains instructions for making your own picture, an order form for me to make it and other nice bits and bobs.
Here are some photos of the pics I have made so far...

A gift for friends who were about to have their first baby - on a children, baby, family theme
