ABOUT PENELLOVERDE...
I was working as a flight attendant for 9 years. It was a tough but good job. Before, I have studied ceramics at the university and to make something was a missing part during my professional civil aviation life.
Three years ago, I drew a mandala on a pebble. It was an instant, unplanned thing. I knew nothing about mandalas, it was just my hand drawing it. So this little creative adventure began. I've tried many different designs on pebbles, mandalas drawings and paintings on paper and fabric, even on baby bodysuits for a friend.
Once I've tasted that good feeling of handmade, I started to use different materials and different methods. For example, son was making weaving as an activity at school, he liked it very much and wanted to do it at home,too. Now his weaving loom and yarns are my property since he got bored of it. And I'm in love with weaving now.
Handwriting is one of my favourites, too. I love beautifully hand written birthday messages, congratulations, best wishes.. and with a nice ornament around it, also drawn by hand.
I really want to jump to the world of sewing. My mother is a master of sewing but she never taught me anything. But I'm thinking to insist more about it. I also think that I can share some of her awesome handmade things with you.
I have newly opened website (www.penelloverde.com) where I think to share my experiences of this handmade adventure. And an Instagram account (@penelloverde)
