Still Life

A small selection of the marrows and squashes we have managed to grow this year. They are always so attractive its seems a pity to eat them.

Imprints

The flier for the next exhibition I am taking part in. My three pices are based around Criniods, the work had to be based on exhibits in the museum. I have shared close ups in previous posts but won't have any final images to show until the end of October.

Bristol Whales and some weaving

Recently I passed these amazing whale sculptures in the Millenium Square in Bristol, the waves are made out of recyled plastic water bottles, read more about here - bristolwhales.tumblr.com


 Last week I went on a wonderful two day course with the talented Susie Gillespie in
Devon www.susiegillespie.com. Her work is a mix of fabric and tapestry weaving, this is the piece I made,
I have to say I am very pleased with it and have learnt lots of new techniques to incorporate into my own work.
There were four people on the course, one local woman and the rest of us stayed us stayed in
 beautiful accomadation in the barn. I would call Susie's style of decor minimalist rustic, anyway very 
comfortable with linen sheets on the beds and all mod cons.
Ok blogger is acting a bit strange, hope this all appears.
