Slightly melancholy end of term feeling, packing up at Asthall after a really memorable exhibition. Mother Nature played her part and people came in droves to admire and to buy. It was a success overall and for me too with four out of seven sculptures of mine, sold. Now it’s off to Marble for the next round of carving!
All over.
“Sailing Before the Wind”
Sailing before the Wind – Onyx – 53 x 46 x 18cms
I wish it were as easy as sailing before the wind. Even after my tutorial today I haven’t quite cracked managing my new website and got 99% of the way on putting up the 2014 gallery only to find I can’t make it visible. Double drat!
English summer heaven.
Spent a wonderful weekend invigilating at on form sculpture, at Asthall Manor, where the riotous colours and glorious scents of the garden were punctuated by beautiful sculptures.
Also edged perilously close to achieving my mid term goal of shooting an eighty five at golf over at Witney Lakes!
Random Sighting!
Was about to hop in to bed last night when I noticed how fetchingly juxtaposed my shoes were after I had kicked them off.Totally random but somehow just right!
Dive In!
In close up you feel you could disappear into these depths!
Exciting prospects.
Green Ice – Fluorite crystal – 14″ x 5.5″ x 6.5″
With just a few weeks to go until I head off to Colorado, I have started a dialogue with Myles about stone and to my great joy, he says he has two really good and quite large pieces of fluorite for me, yay!
I will also have some more honeycomb calcite and a new very crystalline orange alabaster.
I am already dreaming about the shapes!
on form opening.
I have been watching the weather forecast like a hawk and it looks like we might be lucky for the private view of on form sculpture 2014 tomorrow.
Sunday looks even better, so hope to see lots of of you there.
New Directions
Even though I was distinctly underwhelmed when I set up for Parallax, I was subsequently delighted to be spotted by Elena Shchukina.
The happy outcome is that from November 21st I will be showing at the Gallery Elena Shchukina in Mayfair!
Three more days
There are only three days left in this session of marble/Marble and it’s another great day.
I have been told that if I blog here, I can share it on Facebook where I have been keeping an account of my work here this summer, so this is a test shot… here goes.
