Hi – I am Vivien, welcome to my websiteI am based just outside Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, UK and have been persuaded by my family & friends to turn a hobby I love, painting artwork on children's furniture, into a business named VivArt. I am also dog and horse mad and have two rescue dogs and one rescue pony - hence my interest in animal and nature! My philosophy is simple, I feel passionate about recycling good quality old wooden furniture – stop that old piece of furniture going in the skip or chopped up for firewood! Hence most of my work is so far Granny’s 'throw outs', old school chairs and desks, bedside cabinets, small chests of drawers, and anything else salvageable! All this makes for a lot of hard work - cleaning, sanding, filling, painting even before starting the artwork!
But the end product is ohhh so satisfying :-) I hope you enjoy browsing through my website and if anything sparks your interest or if you just wish to know more... lets talk! Best wishes Vivien
PS: See the special feature article about me and my recycled painted furniture & items in the Gloucestershire Echo today ( Saturday, December 12 2009 ). |
