The wonderful Lawrence Batley Theatre in Huddersfield very kindly contacted me about my portrait work and it has now been on exhibition in their foyer for the last month. It was fantastic to see it in such a large open space........a real treat!
We have had a number of meetings of the Reveal Group and everyone's work is really coming together for the Farfield Mill, Sedbergh exhibition in September this year. The last meeting we had was particularly inspiring. I am hoping to get a dedicated website up and running over the summer for the group......so watch this space!
The SDC Hallam Group have agreed to exhibit again this year at the Sheffield Art in the Gardens and we have been meeting to plan that in amongst everything else. We did this event last year and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The gardens are beautiful, the art fabulous and we got to know some very kind and generous people.......can't wait for it all to happen again!
AND .....the icing on the cake, and very, very exciting ......I have just agreed to rent a shared studio space in the Northlight Art Studios in Hebden Bridge. It is an artist co-operative with a myriad of artist working in all sorts of media. I am sharing a lovely white, bright space with another textile artist who also works with machine embroidery. We are hoping to have the space up and running in time for the Open Studios event in July. So if you are in the area at the time do pop by and say hello.
