Dungeness

Just returned from a few days on the south coast. Revisited the strange landscape of Dungeness at the southernmost tip of Kent.

It is a great beach for picking up flotsam and jetsam. Here is a little installation of messages in bottles and just a few of many weather worn jelly shoes.

Surface Decoration

Today I have been preparing examples for the Surface Decoration summer school I will be running on Sat/Sun August 7th and 8th in conjunction with Horsley Printmakers. If you want to experiment with mixed media and use printing techniques in unconventional ways to create beautiful designs on paper and fabric then there are still 2 places left.

To reserve a place email; info@horsleyprintmakers.co.uk

Geffrye Museum

In London today to see my daughter's final degree show which has been transported to The Rochelle School in Shoreditch, not far from Brick Lane.It was unbelievably hot but found sanctuary in the gardens and the reading room at the Geffrye Museum ( www.geffrye-museum.org.uk) It is a Museum which specialises in middle class interiors and at the moment has an exhibition called " A Garden within Doors; Flowers and Gardens in the Home" which was delightful. It runs till 25th July.
