Fabergé Fractals by Tom Beddard
Kirsty Mitchell’s late mother Maureen was an English teacher who spent her life inspiring generations of children with imaginative stories and plays. Following Maureen’s death from a brain tumour in 2008, Kirsty channelled her grief into her passion for photography.

‘Real life became a difficult place to deal with, and I found myself retreating further into an alternative existence through the portal of my camera,’ said the artist. (read the rest here).
We are learning about Rococo paintings in Art History currently, and we happened upon The Swing by Fraggonard, and I thought it looked extremely familiar.
