Grace and Michael

Forgot to mention this but an illustration of mine was included in 'MICHAEL CROWE COLLABORATES WITH...' by Michael Crowe published by Studio Operative and features artists interpreting that famous pose of Grace Jones on the cover of Island Life. The book was published alongside an install by Michael at Good Press last year.

You can buy it here.

Four Seasons

I worked on these 'four season' embroideries over the festive weeks, Autumn Squash, Winter Roast, Spring Greens and Summer Trifle.

There is also a vegetarian version of Winter Roast with a pie. I've made a set of notecards with these embroideries printed on available in my Etsy shop and in one week I will have them in stock at LOIS.

Visible Friends - Pictures

All photographs from a secret club

A few months ago, Annabelle Nielsen of a secret club asked me to submit some artwork based on the theme of dolls and action figures for an exhibition. I created a paper doll on the idea of 'A Winter Adventure'- a circular embroidery and a limited edition of thirty printed copies. The prints contain a piece of card to draw a garden, a forest, woodland to create the story.

Last week a secret club set up a pop-up gallery at Klostergade 68 in Aarhus, Denmark showing the work of twenty seven different artists. I've stolen these pictures of the exhibition from a secret club's facebook, so do have a look there for more photos and news.

Artwork shown by Frederikke Becher Hermansen, Tiwidot, Garudio Studiage, Maria Raymondsdotter, Cendrine Rovini, Reena Makwana, Molly Lattin and Lucy Steggals (pictured) and also Akiko Misumi, Brian Flynn, Birgitte Haahr Lund, Sneaky Raccoon - The Work of Anna Mullin, Melanie Williams, Lee Worton, Garudio Studiage (Chris Ratcliffe and Molly Lattin), Rachel Lattimore, Per Ragnar Møkleby, The Tarantulas, Tony Lee, Xavi Garcia, Masaki Miwa and Adam Hutchinson, Yunmee Kyong, Elkeland and Annabelle Nielsen & Kenn Munk and a secret club.

£3 Christmas Bazaar

I did a couple of Christmas markets this weekend - firstly with my Nest Gallery ladies Anna Lincoln, Alison Mure, Alice Marwick and Emily & Anne. We had our winter landscape and sold cards, gift tags, ceramics, riso prints and zines.

Today I've got some cards, a few more ceramics and postcards for sale at The Lamb in Surbiton as part of the Seething Something stall. Picked up some mulled treats from The Betsy Boutique as Christmas presents for my nearest and dearest. The fair is on until 7pm tonight, so if you're local, go.
