Tango art blog feature

I've been featured in a blog interview by Diana, who is a tango dancer and also a

seller on Etsy (you can visit her shop here). Diana is doing a series of interviews

with other Etsy artists who also are inspired by tango. Below is the start of my

story - you can read the rest of the story here at Diana's blog ArtBead.lv

My new tango shoe bag

I recently finished my first shoe bag!

I'm keeping this one for myself, but I've just found this beautiful, soft plum velvet fabric

which I'll use to make another bag. If I'm happy with it, I'll add it to my Etsy shop!

Treasury feature: homage to Andrea Missé

One of my "The Tango Shoe Is Dreaming" collages got featured in a very special treasury yesterday:

This treasury is an homage to Argentine tango dancer, Andrea Missé, who sadly passed away in a car

accident this week. Andrea Missé was one of the greatest contemporary female tango dancers -

she was beautiful, elegant and highly skilled. I'm honoured to be included in this treasury.



The treasury was curated by Federica Belli - thank you Federica!



The below video is from TangoCamp Sweden, in the same room I saw Missé perform in 2006.

I've chosen a milonga because I feel this dance celebrates the joy of Argentine tango -
