Early September and time for an update after a wonderful time in Spain, revisiting old haunts and friends and gathering new ideas for future works.

Those who read my posts about the Silver Award I received from Craft and Design Selected Awards might like to know that this month’s magazine features all the award winners including myself. I’ve uploaded a copy of my page for you to look at. This is a really good publication for those interested in the broader world of the applied arts. You can find out more from www.craftanddesign.net

 

I am now looking to continue the series of pieces I began this summer based on observations of the South Downs, so new Spanish works will have to wait awhile!

Here’s a little more pictorial piece I made based on a field observed not far from where we live. I often use these as “stitch sketches” so that I can work on larger more abstracted works, so watch this space later this year!
