show in Brighton

I am trying to contain my excitement, but I have been asked to participate in a show at a gallery in Brighton!

I only know 3 others in the show, but one of them, Cas Holmes,

is someone who I have admired from afar for awhile now.

and now I, me........will be in a show with her!

the other artist is amazing too, Anne Kelly

(trying not to feel like an imposter...will wake from my dream any time now)

the third artist is Kate Wickham; a ceramicist

these artists are seriously GOOD!!

(ok, Anne..breathe)

so, tomorrow, I am taking my 4 pieces down to have them put up for the show.

rose

and for the fourth one; I finished the red-winged blackbird and am having it framed as we speak;

just in time!

however, this does leave some holes in my Artwave show

hhhmmm

so......have finished the goldfinch for Artwave

not sure what else I will finish in time for the Saturday opening

goldfinch

have been amusing myself today by listening to old radio detective stories

is it bad to say I am really looking forward to all this being over so I can spend some time (alone) with S?

we have a ferry trip to Dieppe booked later on in September

while we were in the States, we had our kitchen redone (looks good!) but haven't had time to get it back together - we still only have 3 forks in there........and don't get me started on how dirty the house is!!

but then again; being asked to be in a show by someone that just happened

to see my work and liked it has been such an amazing thing!!

that's two this year

so really, I am very, very grateful

and grateful to everyone who has come by my blog -

and especially those who have written nice comments

:>D
