Meet Emma....

Yes I’ve named her….how could I not….


….for there is history in every tear….every mark….


….her first years were spent within the walls of a theatre company…


….her later years in an old attic….


…..my search for her was long…..and mostly wishful…….

.....though she did not know this…..



….we met by chance….or shall I say fate….



 ….one evening….one eBay search….one last minute bid….

…..she now sits lovely in my creative space…..


Have a wonderful rest of the week dear friends!
