pre-degree show

It has been hectic trying to finish off things and move out of the studio space in preparation for setting up the degree show. As I am off to Rouen tomorrow early I had to clear my space by the end of the day. Luckily we can go into the studio to work during the holidays! Last week was also a week of experimentation and I am now excited about new ideas.






Also last week I found this beautiful woodpecker beside the road. It must have been hit by a passing vehicle. So sad. Perhaps will incorporate it into a shrine or make a shrine to it. But first I have to clean it out which I do not think that I have the time and courage to do at present.

Auction Results


We reached over £2,500 for the funding of our catalogue and degree show. The event was a great success but I was so busy I forgot to take photographs!

Sorry for the short post ...  a tweet really!

I will  hunt out a picture for later. Uni is manic. I have to start moving out of my studio on Wednesday to start the installation process for the degree show. Time is going too quickly!

East Kent Printmakers at Whitstable Museum


This is a really lovely exhibition with a sister exhibition running at Hern Bay Museum. There is certainly talent in Kent!



                    I was lucky to have a small piece in this.... please excuse the photo!

Student Auction

We are all preparing for our annual student auction which is a fundraiser for our degree show catalogue. I am helping on the auction team. Everyone is encouraged to enter a piece of work and I have done an A2 print. I am also going to enter a linocut print.



Let's hope that we succeed in raising enough funds!

Going domestic!






These are on thick canvas and I am now going to see how it works with a calico canvas (thinner). More experiments! still working on the film but encountering some problems with the new program.

More experiments.


I have been experimenting with installations in the corridor outside of the studio. There are two works evolving here! More work to be done.


And now a carpet is becoming part of the equation.


and I am making a cast of the car tyre!
