Talking about exhibitions, a couple of weeks ago we went to a christening in Leeds which gave me an opportunity to visit the Bowery Gallery in Headingley and see two artists whose work I very much admire and whose blogs I follow, Alice Fox and Hannah Lamb.
I don't need to say much about this exhibition, hopefully the images will say it all, it is amazing and thought provoking, if you are up that way go and see it, its on until 5th July.
Hannah and Alice I hope you don't mind me putting up images of your work on my blog, though sadly they do not show the full beauty of the work

Hi Debbie, I saw Alice's exhibition at Spurn Lighthouse last winter, then at Bridlington this spring. Yes it's amazing in't it? Haven't seen Hannah's work. I like the rough edges. I've been doing some plant dyeing; this summer I've used cow parsley, and got good results with recycled silk. Lovely yellow; most o my experiments come out various shades of brown! Best wishes Jan
ReplyDeleteHi Jan, Thanks for visiting my blog Yes it is amazing, would loved to have seen it at Spurn as well but living as I do in the South West of England its a long trip.
ReplyDeleteI am just getting into plant dyeing and haven't done much but am looking forward to doing a course with India Flint in the summer.
Oh I'm so jealous! I follow India's blog; she does get fantastic results. Mine are nowhere near as colourful as hers. I look forward to reading about your experiences on your blog! Best wishes Jan
