Bridie was a nurse for forty years. She’s seen stuff.

Now knocking eighty — allegedly — she’s still glammed up, first on the dancefloor and last off, shoes eventually abandoned and painted toenails on show.

The original Dancing Queen.

A signed Little Relic giclée print and a small talisman to remind you to wear the good shoes, dance wild and live while you can.

Bridie – Dancing Queen Art Print - Little Relic

Bridie was a nurse for forty years.

She’s seen stuff.

Nobody really knows how old she is now — although she must be knocking eighty — and frankly, Bridie couldn’t care less.

She’s still glammed up, still got an eye for the men and can still drink most of them under the table.

At a party she’s the first one on the dancefloor and the last one off. Eventually the shoes come off, the feet are bare and the painted toenails appear.

Bridie is the original Dancing Queen.

This Little Relic pairs a signed giclée print of Bridie with fragments and ephemera from her imagined life, turning her into something more than just a character.

She’s a little talisman.

A reminder to wear the good shoes, say yes to the party, dance wild — and not spend too much of life waiting for another day.

Because Bridie has seen enough in forty years of nursing to know that life is for living while you can.

My Little Relics bring together character, memory and imagined ephemera to create small pieces of storytelling art that somehow feel strangely familiar.

A little talisman to remind you to dance wild and live while you can.

Signed giclée print by Sue Dewhurst. Framed in a retro hanging metal edged glass 4 x 6 inch frame with string ready to hang.
