Kirsty Mitchell’s late mother Maureen was an English teacher who spent her life inspiring generations of children with imaginative stories and plays. Following Maureen’s death from a brain tumour in 2008, Kirsty channelled her grief into her passion for photography.
She retreated behind the lens of her camera and created Wonderland, an ethereal fantasy world. The photographic series began as a small summer project but grew into an inspirational creative journey.
‘Real life became a difficult place to deal with, and I found myself retreating further into an alternative existence through the portal of my camera,’ said the artist. (read the rest here).
I cut and dyed my sister’s hair for her, she wanted it tartan! And I wanted a photo of it for my blog, so I did her makeup too!
Headfirst Records still has 10 or so of the shirts, as well as aprons, of this design I did for them. Any of you vegan friends that may be interested, check them out and order here: http://headfirstrecords.limitedrun.com/products/507575-returned-to-the-earth-shirt-apron-design. They printed really nicely!
