John McAslan + Partners - Architecture that improves people's lives

I'm currently working on a proposal for 'Shout out for 78 Derngate Public Art Commission' in Northampton. They are looking for an installation for atrium space of this building.

McAslan are the architects who updated the contemporary extension. The Building was originally designed by Charles Rennie MackIntosh whos work has been a great influence to my life during my studies and to my working style.

I love the work that I have found that McAslan do they are very considerate to the surroundings . . . .

Hotwells First Arts Trail 2008

October 18th 2008 the first ever West Bristol Art Trail

I exhibited my work in the Hope Centre in Hotwells it was again a wonderful venue to be in and the turn out was excellent. My brooches (above) did really well at this event. Perhaps I should do more wearable Textiles?

I met some lovely people both exhibiting and visiting the event.

The Main Exhibition Hall

The Open Studio 2008 was lots of fun, every one pulled together and put on a fantastic show. the opening night was really busy and the weekend started with such enthusiasm. The weather was gorgeous and the local residents visited to see what we all do in the studios.

There were badge making and bunting making workshops, the market stalls, and the revealing of the Salisbury Studio which had only been occupied by artists for two months.
