Exhibition in Bath Nov. 22-28th

This piece is a mixed media collage that I'm exhibiting as part of the Bath Area Network for Artists -BANA. At Walcot chapel gallery Bath.

This collage contains a vintage envelope dated 1902, found papers, stamps etc.

The focal point is the male angel, as you know angels are a re-occuring theme in my art and my textile work.

I also love street art, not the 'tag' style but the more arty stuff like Banksy and Sheppard Fairey, so I created this piece inspired by such art.

This piece was also to be in the exhibition but I sold it on Etsy before I could remove it from the shop, which was nice.

I will have to invigilate at the gallery for a few hours on Sat. 26th but that's fine, I am a little disappointed that I can't make the opening evening though, it's always nice to meet other artists and chat about their practice and what they are up to.

It's also a good way to meet other artists that I'd be interested in exhibiting with, as I'm always on the look out for artists to include in the exhibitions I curate.

It's a difficult time for all artists now, what with cuts to the arts but I'm finding more and more artists are 'doing it for themselves' and I'm net working like crazy! It's hard work, especially when you have a full time job to go to as well, as I do.

But I enjoy it.....I must do I keep doing it!
