'Into The Woods' Group Exhibition:

When I was invited to contribute some work for the 'Into The Woods' exhibition at the very lovely Unit Twelve I was thrilled to say the least.

I also feel very honoured to be showing my work with such amazing artists!

One of the pieces that will be exhibited is 'The Magical Forest' painted collage.

This is an extract of 'Midsummer', a mixed media concertina book.

I've also produced digitally printed scrolls of one of my concertinas called 'The Enchanted Forest' (this is a small detail from it as it is very long!)

I hope you like them!

Wishing you a very relaxing Sunday evening chucks x

'Tide Marks' at the Gate Gallery:

One of my favourite artists, Alice Fox, has an exhibition at The Gate Gallery, Grimsby.

Beautiful mark-making on cloth and paper, made from rust and embossed prints from found objects.

Small areas of exquisite stitchery.

A very rare sighting of a lone black wolf- child in the gallery!

On The Banks Of The Humber...

As part of the BTEC Year One landscape unit, we planned to visit the Water's Edge Nature Reserve and the Ropewalk, Barton.

Above you can see Tas working hard in the lesson before our adventure, practising en plein air drawing techniques.

Two handed drawing?

You go girl!

And here we are, sun shining and sketch books at the ready...

Getting set up and ready for work...

The life of an intrepid artist can be challenging you know!

Mixing those beautiful neutral colours.

Good use of those complementaries Lizzy!

Loving the wellies and jacket combo Serena!

Alex, the artist and philosopher!

We were also extremely lucky to have Richard Hatfield speak to us about his work.

We learnt a great deal about his artistic practice, painting techniques and his role in the Ropewalk.
