Ruth it turns out was selected not to have (as we thought) just one of her pieces to be on display at Corus HQ but ALL OF THEM. She was subsequently judged to be the best student of her year and none of us were there for the exhibition!! Including Ruth who didn`t think it was a big thing!! Jonny is following in her sisters footsteps!
Anyway we are heading off this weekend to various places - Ruth and Nana to London for a girlie shopping weekend, Angus to Paris for a long weekend of conferencing til wednesday, Anne and Debbie to York and James and Jonny wherever!!
At the weekend I did my first ever abstract canvas as a part of a contribution to the church`s art exhibition - I used textured paint to get a rough base and then laid on top of that a combination of aerosol acrylic gold and black followed by two types of metallic flakes and then a number of inks in the red/brown range, more gold on top and finally laquering the lot to seal it together. I loved doing it and if time and inspiration allow, will do some more.
