November 2011

My first solo exhibition is now showing at Derby Cathedral Centre and will be there until the end of November.

October 2011

I have just finished making some paper mache figures for Gallery 52's winter exhibition, I am very happy with how this snowy scene turned out and it made a lovely change to making fairies.
I have also made some little witches that are currently sitting in the Derby Museum and Art Gallery shop window but only for a limited time!

August 2011

This month I will be running some paper mâché classes for some lovely ladies that I have met recently at local art and craft events. I'm looking forward to seeing the lovely creations they will produce at the end of the 4 workshops.
Hopefully more classes will follow in the near future.
Next month I will be taking part in the Wirksworth Festival. I will be part of the arts trail which takes place over the second weekend of September. Artists are exhibiting all over Wirksworth and I have the very unusual venue of a vintage carriage at the railway station. I haven't taken part in a festival before but I'm really looking forward to being part of such a lovely event.
Im also currently have a couple of commissions that I am working on. These are lovely to do as you can personalise the painting to make them really special.

July 2011

July is a really busy month for me with 2 lovely events happening at the start and end of the month. On the 9th July I will be taking part in West Hallam Well Dressings art market. One of my illustrations has also been used for the marketing of the event, thanks to Rachel of rachelhelendesigns.com.
I will also be taking part in the Kedleston Hall craft fair at Derby on the last weekend of July. It will be the first time I've taken part in such a big event but I'm really looking forward to it. I've got lots of preperation to do though so I'm going to have a busy few weeks ahead of me!
