Brighton 5 Ways Artists' Open Houses

Firstly, have I really not posted anything on here since LAST YEAR? I'm quite shamefaced.  I'm basically blaming social media for my apalling blogging of late.  I update my Facebook and Twitter much more frequently, honest!

So, enough of the excuses, I'm popping in to tell you that I'm showing my jewellery as part of Brighton Artists' Open Houses this May. I'll be at 3 Florence Road in talented ceramicist Sylph Baier's house, exhibiting alongside Wolfram Lohr's beautiful leather accessories, Tanja Ufer's jewellery, textiles, lighting, the list goes on! There will be a cafe in the garden run by Bee's cakery so you will be fed and watered too.

Click here for your invition, and visit the website for details of all the incredible artists who are taking part in houses all over town. Perfect if you like a nose around other people's houses (who doesn't) and want to see some great art and craft into the bargain.

Free Tickets to Open Studios!

It's Cockpit Open Studios time (next weekend to be precise)! I'll be selling my wares in both Holborn and Deptford sites this year, and as always it looks set to be a great event. No need to schlep along the High Street in search of Christmas presents - come and see behind the scenes at Cockpit and buy beautiful accessories, jewellery, homewares and more direct from the makers.

Come along and have a glass of mulled wine with us - I'll be in Studio E2R in Holborn, and 206 at Deptford.

If you need any further persuasion, I have
6 free tickets to give away (usually £5 joint ticket or £3 Deptford only). Just email me with your name and address to be entered into the draw!

Holborn: 25-27 November

Deptford: 2-4 December

'Electric'

'Electric' opens at the RBSA (Royal Birmingham Society of Artists) today.  I was happy to see they've used my Green Amethyst Encrusted Bracelet in the publicity. 

In the RBSA's words, 'On show are a selection of the nation’s most celebrated designer makers who are exhibiting their latest collections of contemporary silver and gold jewellery, alongside ceramics and silverware.'  Pictured above are Kathryn Hinton's fabulous faceted silver bowls and Nobuko Okumura's intriguing jewellery.

'Electric' runs from 7 November 2011- 13 January 2012.
