Bend and Stretch...

...and reach for your new art supplies.

Spray paint - my latest love.

I've just signed up for an online stencilry class over at
Dispatch from LA. You can get all the details here. I can't wait to stretch myself in new creative directions and see what comes of it.

Speaking of stretching, I've signed up for a stall at the September and December
Made n' Thornbury market. I'll be focusing specifically on collage and mixed-media work for these markets. I'm simply buzzing about taking this next step, and full of ideas for works I want to make (including - fingers crossed - some collaborative works with CurlyPops).


If you can't wait till September you can still pick up some of my very first group of collages in the shop.

  13. Woohoo ... the stencilry class sounds fab. Of course when I saw the photo, I did wonder ... just fleetingly ... if you were going out tagging trains.

    I can't wait to see what you do. Great news about the markets too. Go you crafty gals!
