time for an update..





here's a few photos from the Headingley Arts Trail event I took part in a couple of weekends back which involved opening my house to the public to view my work and that of other local artists.

the top image shows a short run of hand printed business cards that i've done for upcoming fairs this weekend. tomorrow i'll be in Sheffield for the Candy Cane Christmas fair at the Millenium Gallery and then on Sunday i'll be in London for the Bust Christmas Craftacular at York Hall in Bethnal Green. alongside newly screen printed business cards i'll have a new tote bag design for sale and hand printed Christmas gifts alongside the current range of Memo products. it's going to be a busy weekend, hope to see you at one of the fairs!

Headingley Arts Trail & Handmade Nation screening..

this weekend is going to be a pretty hectic one for me.. Saturday & Sunday my house is open to the public as part of Headingley Arts Trail. My work and the work of 3 other local 2d & textile artists will be displayed in my house 10am-4pm both days. if you fancy stopping by to see the work here's a map that shows my house and the other places involved in the trail.

as soon as the trail finishes on Sunday i'm heading into Leeds to run a zine making workshop and a stall at a screening of Handmade Nation at a bar called A Nation of Shopkeepers. its part of Leeds International Film Festival and has been organised by Craftsville. hope to see you there.. either at my house or in the pub!

the last few weeks..






on Saturday I had a stall at the Manchester Artists Book Fair alongside my friend Karoline Rerrie. we ate several nice cakes.

its been a while since my last blog post which i put down to being crazily busy making work in the run up to Christmas.. oh, and it was my birthday at the end of October. the amazing cake photograph shows the black forest gateaux Sam made for me, it tasted so good!

i've been busy screen printing, drawing and stitching over the last few weeks. i'll have new products and projects to announce very soon..
