I am very excited to announce the final line-up of Love Me, Leave Me (for one night only). All of these girls are so talented and skilled in their fields - I can't find the words to describe how chuffed I am that they accepted my proposal to be in this exhibition. As this is a one night event I think the best way to celebrate will be a party, rather than an 'opening event', so guests will be encouraged to sip some sweet punch (made by yours truly from a super-secret recipe) and don some fifties frocks and patterned socks. Hope you can make it!
It is the weekend following yet another busybusy (one 'busy' is simply not enough!) week at uni and in the studio, and at last I get to share the fruits of my labours with you. Firstly, I have added a new print to my store. It is a portrait of Miriam, or Miri and the Birds as I named the piece. It sounds more like a band name than anything, but I think its quite sweet. To achieve the dusty effect I wanted to emphasise the flurry of feathers and movement I used a combination of gouache and white pencil and rub-rub-rubbed until the desired vision took shape. Besides Miri there are a few other new things in store.Secondly I am very excited to be a featured artist on Art Hound, a fabulous curated space by Brooklyn-based blogger Kate Singleton. Her page is so clever and well designed, I could browse it for eternity!
