Outside art adventures Part 2
I know, it's been a while (again!) my social media is the quickest place to catch up on my work, but of course, not everyone does the dreaded socials and it's good practice to be somewhere else as well. So here is a quick resume of how my outside textiles have developed over the last 3 years. Early in 2024 a sculpture trail in Norfolk had a call out for work, I had spotted it the year before but hadn't contemplated outside work at the time, now I was all system go! Raveningha

Outside art adventures Part 3
This one was unexpected and I didn't have time to put work together, but again it was a lovely opportunity to put work in a lovely space. I do have to say that these outside instrallations are unpaid, but they fit into the type of the work that I want to make and you never know what might come along, they are also very good for the socials and putting my work into new spaces that would otherwise be tricky to find on my own. So, back to this plot.......Very early in 2025, I wa
