Christmas Decorations!

Here are two little birdie decorations I've designed for the Christmas Bazaar at Middlesex (12th Dec to the 16th, in the grove Atrium) to raise funds for our degree show! I'm going to transfer them onto material and then pad and sew them up. They'll only be tiny (I think the original illustrations are 7cm squarish) but hopefully will look nice and festive!
UPDATE: Here are some photos of the christmas fair (which went rather well, pretty much everything I took sold!) and the birds as decorations (including them in place on my christmas tree and garland).
A lovely photo of Eileen Kwan and Helen Walters (check out their beautiful blogs too!) at the stall.
In place at mine during christmas festivities!

Haunts of the Poets!

This Thursday is a private view at the Poetry Cafe in Covent Garden. The work represents the places and poems of poets of London (in conjunction with the Poetry Society). I created a four colour lino of Ted Hughes' "Jaguar" (Did you know that when he wrote the poem he was working as a zookeeper at London zoo?) and it was selected! All money from the show goes towards the Graduate show. I'll upload pictures of the work and the exhibition soon!
See you there!
