Paper kitchen ...

I was asked recently to create a paper kitchen for the very cool food magazine Eat Me. I obviously jumped at the chance and here are the results.

Making magazine - Issue 5

It looks like I have got a lot of catching up/updating to do on this blog, where does the time go?
Lots of exhibitions and events going on at the moment. Watch this space (or blog!) for updates.

I thought I might start my updating with my recent (ish) feature in the lovely crafty magazine 'Making'. It is a magazine all about creative things you can do at home. My 'Nut tree' cutting was featured on the craft buys page.
I'm also in Issue 8 of the magazine (the paper issue) with some origami flowers.

Letterpress prints...

I've had a little dabble in the traditional world of letter pressing recently. What an amazing process. I have had two of my paper cutting designs made into A4 posters by the lovely people up at 'Blush publishing'. I can't wait to do more! ...

Lewes artist and makers market....

What a fab day. It was great fun being around such creative people. I particularly loved Liz Lake's work - a very talented artist. It was also lovely meeting some charming customers. They truly made the day wizard!
Here's a couple of pic's of my stall on the day......

Some date to pop in the diary .....

A little note to say...

...MY WEBSITE HAS LANDED.

An apple a day

Here is one of my new designs I'm exhibiting in the artwave festival.
It's based on the poem about apples!.....

An apple a day keeps the doctor away
Apple in the morning - Doctor's warning
Roast apple at night - starves the doctor outright
Eat an apple going to bed - knock the doctor on the head
Three each day, seven days a week - ruddy apple, ruddy cheek

Everyone who's visited exhibition so far have been ubber dubber kind about my work.
Thank you.
