Combovers are a splendid and very traditional hair style in Cornwall, especially among those of the farming community. Here we se some splendid samples such as 'the oweedoinpard?', 'the pond weed' and 'the gimme shelter'. We’ve decided to start using a Facebook fan page rather than the group. Please pop in and say oweedoin. Click LIKE while you’re there to join. http://www.facebook.com/pages/wwwcornishknockerscom/133232830037605?v=wall Splendid.  Morgawr The Falmouth Sea Monster Falmouth in Cornwall has a legendary Sea Monster named Morgawr (meaning 'Sea Giant' in the Cornish language). He's a playful fellow and like most Cornish Sea Monsters he is quite humorous and likes nothing more than playing jokes on the local fisherman. Cornish Sea Monsters can also be a little bit rude if they are having a bad day or have just woken up. Media: Watercolour and pen on watercolour board with a little salt texturing. Shipping: Free Worldwide! <--- Hurrah! Signed Original Size: 9" x 6" (229 x 152mm) Available now in the Knocking Shop over at Etsy with FREE postage/shipping! Raaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrr… Major update to the Knockerpedia including Morgawr the Falmouth Sea Monster, The Beast Of Bodmin and the Woottang Clan. Some recent aceo doodlings for your tasteful eyes to peruse my cockers. If you haven’t heard of ACEO’s, it’s short for Art Cards Editions and Originals. They’re miniature works of art in any style or media without any restrictions other than the size which always has to be 3.5 x 2.5 inches. Think Collectable/Pokemon/Baseball cards for grown ups (and not so grown ups) and created by professional and amateur artists alike from all over the globe. They started off on EBay but can now be bought from many places around the net. Afordable art for all. A bleddy good idea if you ask me.  Celtic Knockwork number 1. Watercolour and pen on paper.  Celtic Knockwork 2. Watercolour and pen on paper.  Celtic Knockwork 3. Watercolour and pen on paper...as you may of guessed by now.  Morgawr the Falmouth Sea Monster spys on a fisherman. Lipstick on cheesecloth...actually no, it's watercolour and pen on paper again. |
