"The name behind Ivy May artistry is my latest beautiful mum.

She taught me everything I know. Especially about having a go. There is no such word as cannot or bored. So hence I love creating , I am also busy making all the time whether my art, crocheting, knitting, gardening or mosaics .

So a big thank you mum"
