Exhibitions

West Bristol Arts Trail, October 16-17th, 11am - 5pm
Since the last trail I have become a mother of two and Aaliyah & Harry are keeping me very busy! So this will be a chance for those who missed out last year to view my prints for the first time and for those who did see it to come and look again!! I've been very kindly invited to exhibit with Anna Christy, a well established artist based in Cliftonwood. Looking forward to seeing you at Anna's house, 4 Cliftonwood Terrace, BS8 4TZ.

Recently visited

The Real Van Gough: The Artist and His Letters, Royal Academy of Artists, 23rd January - 18th April 2010
Before Harry came along I managed to take Aaliyah to her first exhibition! I love the rhythm and pattern in Van Gough's work and his use of bold colour is always inspiring. It was fascinating to see his letter sketches and have an insight into the workings of this artist's mind.

'Garden and Cosmos' The Royal Paintings of Jodhpur - British Museum until 23rd August 2009
Featuring 56 paintings on loan from India, none of which have ever been displayed in Europe. Amazing detail and colour created by the artists of the royal courts between the 17th and 19th centuries.The museum is having an 'Indian Summer' season so there's lots more on offer including 'India Landscape' - created by Kew and featuring a selection of plants from the Indian subcontinent, displaying a range of colours and scents from South Asia.

Picasso 'Challenging the Past' - ended June 7th 2009
His work is, as ever, always inspiring, loved it all especially his portraits and nudes.

Kuniyoshi - ended June 7th 2009
Very similar to the Indian paintings I recently saw at the British Museum. Lots of storytelling amazing detail and inspiring mark making!
