The Bookshelf plinths have arrived ... preparations underway for The Monochronium

Today I popped into Lighthouse for a quick meeting. I took a look in the gallery and was excited to see that The Bookshelf plinths had arrived in preparation for The Monochronium exhibition. So I thought I would just film a short piece to show you the gallery, as it is now pretty empty, before it all starts to take place for my upcoming exhibition.

Other news, I met up with one of the photographers who will be documenting the event and also met with a film maker who will also be engaging with the exhibition and producing an art film documentary of the event.

It's all happening, but still plenty of work to do. But in the mean time, here's the little clip of video blog for you.

Pride in Bournemouth final Lion varnishing

Today I went into the Lion's Den in Bournemouth to finish off the final touches to my lovely lions. I had a lovely day with many other artists who also came in to work on their lions. Thank you to everyone in this project, it has been wonderful being a part of it and I look forward to the auction evening next week. It has been great to make some new friends too working on this project.

New Postcards! Hurrah!!

Well I just got rather excited about my new postcards, so I thought I would share them! They arrived in the post today, in perfect timing for next week, when I will be attending the VIP reception for the Pride in Bournemouth auction at The Pavillion in Bournemouth.


I like the way my illustrations look when they are reduced right down to a postcard or business card, you see the original size is A3... love them this size though ... it's easy to keep art on you at all times when it's this size ... pocket size art, love it! :)

Really starting to enjoy this flipcam ... a great way to document little moments of my art-full journey.

Today I went into the Lions Den in Bournemouth to give a bit of TLC to my lovely lions before they go to auction on the 18th September at The Pavillion in Bournemouth to raise money for the Born Free foundation and Julia's House.
