FINISHING ORDERS

I have been working feverishly getting work ready for exhibitions in December

and January.

This is work bound for the exhibition, 'Get Fresh'

in January at Bovey Tracey for the

Devon Guild of Craftsmen.

DIARY DATE

I have been invited to take part in an art event in the village of Penallt, south of Monmouth.

                                  

I will be demonstrating how to make and print a collagraph together with exhibiting work.

Art in Penallt takes place 5-7 October. www.penallt.org.uk has more details of the artists involved over the weekend.

 

Back in the shed I have been experimenting with enamel making more 'Ladies & Gentlemen' for my galleries for the festive period. These are waiting to have their bows and pins attached.

DAPPER ENAMEL CHAPS

There is a wonderful shop called Blades not far from the British Museum. It is the place to go for rubber stamps. I treated myself to this richly moustached gentleman and it has proved ideal for these 6in steel figures.

An interesting contrast to the girls!

I am very excited as The New Brewery Arts in Cirencester has ordered some brooches for their Christmas makers exhibition.

ENAMEL EXPERIMENTS

 Digital and screen printed transfers together with raku fired enamel.

We all have photograph albums that contain relatives with long lost identities, I am fascinated by these people who had lives and personalities but we will never know who they are.

I AM SO PROUD!

Passing out at Sandhurst August 2012, as a friend said to me, 'a proud button busting moment for us all', well done Jack!
