Afternoon Walk. Lustleigh. Through the village and up into the woods. Primroses and daffodils. Sudden intense showers and birdsong. With my daughter. ❤️ (at Lustleigh) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqHm-nXoBtF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Things That Catch Your Eye. Road markings. Once a pedestrian now a hero. Strange configurations. Padstow harbour Cornwall. 🚶‍♂️🌧️⛴️🎨🖌️🤍#roadmarkings #wornroadmarkings #padstowharbour #hilarybravoinspiration #thingsthatcatchyoureye https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0LPXaoBoC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Captivating World - of road men. The painted variety. Padstow men. Slowly eroded into lolloping heroes. 🚶‍♂️🎨🖌️🌧️☕️🌊⛴️#padstowmen #roadmarkings #paintedmen #hilarybravoinspiration (at Padstow, Cornwall) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0HgIFoiVX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Because Space can be Limited. Some galleries that I sell to go for an open space - minimal look. Most are cornucopias of wonder and pretty well knock your socks off the moment you walk into them. I supply my papier-mâché jewellery with displays to both wholesale and S.O.R galleries. There’s no obligation to use them but most are thrilled to bits to have them. I prefer it if they do as then customers can see how the colours shift as the earrings move - I incorporate all sorts of artistic devices in order to emulate a butterfly’s 🦋wing, a beetle’s 🪲back, a magpie’s feather or the iridescence found the ancient glass. I love my work. There’s no division between my life and my work - writing, painting and teaching online. 🦋🪲🦆🦉🕊️🖌️🎨😊🎁#jewellerydisplays #jewelrydisplays #papiermâché #papermache #colourfuljewellery #colourfuljewelry #paperjewelry #paperjewellery #resinjewelry #resinjewellery #hilarybravojewellery #artisanjewelry #artisanjewellery #contemporaryjewellery (at Devon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpzUwUKoPef/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is a glimpse of a very small part of Yandles I Martock in Somerset. Do go and explore because it has so much to offer including a wonderful arts and craft section that’s carefully curated. There’s the gift shop and cafe, lots of parking and one of the best selections of artist materials your likely to find anywhere. Then there is so much more but I’ll leave that for you to discover. @yandlesgiftandhome 🎁💍☕️🖌️🎨👍❤️#yandles #martock #hilarybravojewellery #hilarybravostockists (at Martock, Somerset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpuOxOCI_v1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ready for Another Day. It’s raining and bright. And I have my car back from its annual MOT. Been using a hire car for my forays to galleries. So easy and so comfortable. My Devon car less so but much loved. Looking forward to taking a little time out on Dartmoor in this moody weather. 🚙🌧️🚶🏻‍♀️😉🖋️🖌️🎨🕊️😊#hilarybravo #hilarybravojewellery #hilarybravotutorials #hilarybravopapermache #hilarybravoworkshops #hilarybravoyoutube (at Devon) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpj-k1kIxEC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Strange World of Tintern Abbey. Looking rather like the set of a creepy horror film. I have never seen it like this before. I only remember moonlight and shadows. Returning home from visiting family. Sunday jaunts. 🚙😊👍❤️#tinternabbey (at Tintern Abbey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpdBrcwouVr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Feeling like putting my feet up! The art of doing nothing at all. A day off. 😌🛋️🕊️👍#doingnothing #relax #restingtoday #absolutebliss (at Devon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpYIV83LMqc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Absolutely Delighted. Today I decided to go to Corfe Castle. What an amazing place. Looking forward to going back and exploring. And I found a perfect shop. It is both gift shop and gallery. Now stocking my papier-mâché jewellery. Seasons Green. ‘ We're a small, independent gift shop and gallery in the heart of Corfe Castle village, in the Isle of Purbeck, an area of outstanding natural beauty on the Jurrasic Coast in Dorset. We sell unusual and lovely art, handmade crafts and gifts: all largely inspired by gardens and plants, the English countryside and coast.’ @seasons.green 🎨🖌️🕊️💚😊#seasonsgreen #corfecastle #hilarybravojewellery (at Corfe Castle, Dorset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpRaGoPI-0R/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fisherton Mill. Salisbury. Wiltshire. I have restocked Fisherton Mill with my jewellery. Fisherton Mill is wonderful. I quote - ‘It’s the largest independent art gallery in the South West. Fisherton Mill Gallery and Café, the jewel in Salisbury’s crown of independent shops, provides an ideal place to escape the crowds but keep the fun. An airy and spacious converted Victorian grain mill, this iconic setting has ample room to browse, shop and eat in a unique atmosphere while the outside sunny courtyard offers an al fresco continental ambience.’ It’s true. ❤️😊🖌️🎨🕊️👍😉#fishertonmill #fishertonmillgallery #salisbury #agooddayout #hilarybravojewellery #hilarybravostockists (at Salisbury, Wiltshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpPmLZroc0V/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
