Way of the Gull

Well maybe 1000 hours of practice if I'm lucky.

Mysteries of the deep Orkney


Still working on this piece I've decided to add some colour at the top to remind me of the beautiful pink and yellow flowered meadows. 

Way of the Gull progress is slow

                                       

I'm still playing around with these pieces, not happy with the printed gulls, I'm going to try my hand at machine embroidery.

Making ready for Brighouse Victorian Market

 I'll be at the market with my friends from Lateral.  Four of us will be sharing a stall.  Lots of lovely things on offer.

Lateral is a group of artists that work and show together.  Originally founded by Huddersfield Uni Textile Crafts graduates now expanded to include more like minded artists.

Exhibitions to visit

Poppies at the YSP are a huge attraction, too much wallowing in the past instead of facing up to the plight of current victims of war for my taste.

The new exhibition of Bill Viola's work in the Underground Gallery and the Chapel is both stunning and thought provoking.




The next exhibition on my list to visit is Art Textiles at the Whitworth in Manchester.
