Makers at The Mill Exhibition...... Bromley-by-Bow

On Thursday I was fortunate enough to have been invited to the PV of a new exhibition at The House Mill, Three Mills which is running until Sunday 28th September 2014. There are several artists and designer-makers involved with this and the work on show ranges from photography and ceramics to large art pieces.

The invite came from fellow London Historian and illustrator Jane Young who is one of the exhibitors and an invite was also extended to Alan and Janetta Waltham who were behind the East London Art Group's recent show at Bow Arts The Nunnery.  After many months of missing each other I also got to meet artist Marc Gooderham whose work I have admired since seeing an exhibition at the Town House on Fournier Street earlier this year.

Thank you for the invite Jane and wishing all of you a very successful show.

It is a lovely exhibition and in such a fabulous setting but only on for another week. Full details are below...

Olympic Torch/Everyone Active Loughton

I have been excited by the Olympic Torch relay for weeks now and today the cavalcade hits Waltham Abbey and Waltham Cross!  Leaving shortly for quick glimpse of it around 8.50am.  Today is also a day when Everyone Active Leisure Centres in Loughton, Waltham Abbey, Epping and Ongar will be having open days with lots of free activities.  I am having a stall with Made at Home by Leigh Clothier at Loughton from around 10.30.

Time to finish my coffee and off to see the torch.....

Black and White Collection Cards

Had fun yesterday afternoon making cards for the first time in a long time.  I decided to just try a few with simple fonts and images from stamps.  They looked great on a simple white card.  I'm hoping to get some other ideas I have ready for the next Forest Art and Crafts indoor fair on 24th September 2011.
