Kompletely Kapoored…
Thank you Anish for playing with our senses and proprioception.
Our eyes needed a reset/refresh afterwards (second to last slide..).
Exhibition highlights for me are a giant blood red pvc mass squeezing into an entire floor of the Hayward Gallery, and “black hole” works using the darkest black known on the planet - Vanta black.

(Vantablack is a super-black coating invented by Surrey NanoSystems that absorbs up to 99.965% of visible light. The name Vanta stands for Vertically Aligned Nano Tube Array!)

I really enjoyed this fund raising afternoon for the charity “Prema Clay” held at the magical home and garden of Pippa Price

There were cakes and coffee, live music, a plant sale, a craft sale, a raffle with artwork and workshops donated by Sarah Kowenicki Lucy Caddel | Artist Megan Ward Caris Jackson and others , and a “try out clay” area with one of the founders of Prema Clay Katharine Morling

Prema Clay is a CIC which gives vulnerable groups the opportunity to express themselves and their feelings through working with clay, in an inclusive and supportive environment.

They are doing REALLY good things. If you want to know more about this charity then DM Katharine.

This afternoon has restored my faith in humans

Thanks for the lift Kate Johnston 🙌🏾

4 reasons to visit Shrewsbury Market Hall this bank holiday Saturday 29.08.26

1. Independant traders, creatives, food and drink can be found here on 2 levels.

2. It’s the last day of the fabulous Town in a Tin exhibition (3rd/top floor, above the public loos)

3. I’ll be selling gifts and cards at “the barrow” (2nd floor, gallery level, underneath the exhibition) 10-4pm

4. It will probably rain at some point - take shelter in this iconic 60s building

R.I.P Dolly.
Given her cracking sense of humour, I like to think she would have enjoyed this.
The world is a duller place without you.

Were you also left feeling dejected after school Art lessons with disinterested teachers going just through the motions?...

Were you also left feeling dejected after school Art lessons with disinterested teachers going just through the motions?

30 odd years after my first and last (very muddy) attempt at oil painting, I finally gave it another go today with brilliant local artist and teacher Robert Lawton at Studio Helyg in Oswestry.

In three hours, Rob showed me how much you can do with just two colours + black + white — without creating the dreaded mud.

The ‘practice’ painting I’m holding is simply a study in brushstrokes, hues, light and shade, but I left feeling genuinely inspired to start mixing colours myself.

Proof that it’s never too late to have another go at something you were led to believe you were “bad” at.

If you fancy a bespoke oil painting tutorial with Rob, DM him to book.

Just the best way to start the week - helping The Makery install their “town in a tin” exhibition Shrewsbury Market Hall
Between 17-29th August you’ve got the chance to see (and purchase!) over 100 incredible tiny works of Art on the top level of the Markethall hall.
If you see a tin you love (and believe me you will!) they can be purchased for £25 and all proceeds go directly to the Perches House restoration fund 👍🏽

And while you’re there, get a photo of the “sardine selfie tin” created by talented Kate Johnston
