About the artist
|
Betty Mills
|
|
|
During a long life Betty Mills has seen fashions in Art
and Craft - as well as the Rag Trade- come and go, but the enduring
beauty of Creation remains as absorbing as ever.
|
|
Ultimately her talents as an organiser and general designer
led to an interesting variety of tasks for the company for whom she worked.
Early retirement "to do her own thing" as a writer, designer, artist, and needlewoman has led, finally, to designing for the Llanrhos Parish Banner Group which includes church banners, wall hangings, and other furnishings for other local churches as well: a wall hanging for St. David's Hospice in Llandudno: designing Flower Festivals; public speaking with visual aids; and writing and illustrating diaries. Be encouraged to try your own hand at variety and branching out! |
