A Catch up with Dorset Newbie, Gina!

Dorset does have a real arts-y feel to it, what with Dorset Arts Festival, and who can forget the never ending beautiful scenery and landscapes that make artists and photographers weak at the knees! So we couldn't blame Gina for heading to Dorset to embrace her inner-art! 
Gina works under the name Zuleikha's Art, named after her daughter, with her work varying from land seascapes and floral displays. 
Since moving to Dorset, Gina is planning to exhibit and sell in local galleries and craft boutiques, which includes a new online craft event 'Craftfest' with whom she will be listing work and selling prints! 
Zuleikha's Art comes in all shapes and sizes including bookmarks, greetings cards, silk painting, quilling, various sized paintings and watercolours, and more interestingly, aceos. "I create aceos which are miniature works of art, measuring 2.5 by 3.5 inches (small I know but really popular for those who do not have the wall space or budget to collect large works of art but still love art none the less.)" she said. 
If you want to find out a bit more about Zuleikha's Art, you can visit her website, or follow her journey via her blog. In the meantime, we'll leave Gina to get arty, as she's itching to get creative on her new surroundings - and can you blame her?!
