Hackers Tackers and Stuffers Quilt and Needlework Group Exhibition

Jenn and I went over to The Dragonfly Gallery, at Watton to visit the, Hackers Tackers and Stuffers Quilt and Needlework Group's Exhibition and as usual there was lots of inspiration and things on show to look at, admire and buy. Both Jenn and I entered the bag raffle and chatted with the ladies about the work and the group. I am teaching a mixed media cushion techniques in September 2012 for the group and have previously spoken at a meeting. Visit their site to see the other great meetings they have HERE

BA Fine Art Show 2011

Last night my friend Michelle and little Lexi were invited to

The Private View of The BA Fine Art Show for 2011 at

the Kings Lynn Arts Centre.

As past BA Students we had both exhibited there and

it is always great to see the new ideas and students shows.

The Show was as dynamic as ever, filling all of the four

Gallery Spaces!

Chris Williams talked to us about his work which many

were drawn to. It is based on Still Life Images of everyday

objects which are then abstracted and re- arranged in sections.

These are then reproduced using different thicknesses of media

such as card,plaster and concrete, they were outstanding pieces of

work.

Good Luck to all Art Students!

I am slowly learning how to add more interest to the pages

and putting in links to show more details.

Have another look and view the new work and enjoy

Newmarket Art and Craft Show

On the way home from the Quilt Show we travel through

Newmarket and decided to go to the Art and Craft Show.

It's like the opposite to Chilford Quilt Show.

Contemporary and glossy artworks and gifts.

Lots to see and buy especially in the food halls!

The tasters were great.

Jenn had the biggest donut ever!

We went up to the top floor and visited

Artist in Residence Roz Lowe.

A ceramics artist, who makes original ceramic

garden worlds. They are like miniature fairy gardens.

I brought an empty pot with a miniature house and garden on it

to put some baby house leeks in.

Her creativity and energy is so wonderful.

Thank you Roz for sharing.

Roz doesn't have a website yet,

maybe one day.

Megs Garden

This afternoon I went to see another textile graphic artist.

Meg Bowne.

She creates wonderful pictures out of textile and paper.

Some are stitched and incredibly detailed.

This one was made for Alveva's Garden Party Challenge.

Meg is going to display some of her pictures at

Alveva's Exhibition in October.

It is going to be a wonderful Textile Exhibition.

It was a lovely afternoon with Meg in her inspirational home.

She showed me her garage studio,

her garden studio for mosaic making

and her indoor creating space for storing her quilts,

textile art and jewelry making.

See more of the places I have visited this month for

inspiration on previous posts.
