Gah! I absolutely love this colorful, geometric, hand-embroidered work by New Zealand artist Jane Denton! I love it so much in fact, that I’ve stocked that last piece, the big beautiful X, in my GREAT.LY shop … yes, GREAT.LY officially launches today! We should celebrate, yes? Hm… how about a give-away of one of Jane’s amazing pieces!? Like this one:
Jane has generously given this amazing, triangular, framed original to me so that I can then give it to one of you! Isn’t that the nicest thing EVER? I saw it in person when I was in New York for the GREAT.LY press party, and I was very tempted to give it away to myself! But that wouldn’t be very nice, so just leave a comment on this post and I’ll draw one winner on Friday May 23 at midnight PST, and I’ll announce the winner on Saturday morning. Good luck! {and go check out GREAT.LY! I’m so proud to be part of it… can you tell?!}
ps. see that little G at the top left of the site… up with FB etc… yep, that’s a direct link to my GREAT.LY boutique, and if you see those on other blogs, it will link through to their shops. YAY!
……………
AND THE WINNER IS …. ME! Ok, no it isn’t. The name I pulled last night at midnight was HEIDI LEECH! YAY Heidi! Thanks to everyone that entered… I’ll do another one as soon as I can โฅ
Awesome giveaway! Her work is SO great! So so pretty.

Amazing! I’m jealous of Jane’s patience level to complete these.
Intelligent art. Makes a nice change.

Getting her art in our living room is one of my dreams! I saw some of them at the store few weeks ago, it was absolutely fantastic!!!
So beautiful! I love contemporary twists on classic art forms. I’ve also been keeping track of inspiration for my first tattoo, and this work is going in the folder.
Would brighten up my daughter’s room beautifully, please. ๐
I have recently brought a piece of Janes latest collection. I smile every time I see it. Love her work I just love the ‘simplicity’ in appearance but each piece has taken a long time to create.

I would LOVE to win this!
It is exciting to see embroidery as an artform. My mother was an avid embroiderer and spent many many many hours creating pillowcases and table cloths. My first venture into embroidery as a child was embroidering a lamb on my pillow case. I was so crazy proud of myself. Yesterday I was in a store that sold embroidery thread and I was so excited to see all the colors and the texture and remembering the little wrapper around it. James work is stunning!
Fabulous colours, so vibrant and fun!
Her work is bold and delicate at the same time. Love it.
What a cheerful piece! It would be a dream to win it!
Love it! Both graphic and textured.
These are incredible!
Fantastic work! Love it and the colours are amazing

Thank you so much for showing us Jane Denton’s work. I love the colors, classic patterns, and especially her fine workmanship. Her work remind me of some 1970s graphic prints. It’s happy-making!
This gorgeous piece would look PERFECT in my new daughter’s nursery! Or I might steal it for my own bedroom… either way, it’s a beautiful artwork that I already adore x
This is work is so cleverly designed. Simple yet sophisticated. It brings a bit of nostalgia for me working with my nana in handcrafts, yet brings it into the 21st century. Love love love it!

Stitching together triangles of candy coated colors into threads of happiness. It makes me want to put on my flowy embroidered top, drop my straw hat and beach towel in the basket while I pedal my pink bike to the beach. Splash! Cool down with a quick dip in the aqua blue water. I have the perfect place to hang a Jane Denton for a daily fix of positive vibes.
