Catherine Stones

Good show to Catherine Stones for getting an exhibition together for the fabled North Bar in Leeds.  Her work’s great, check it out and more at CatherineStones.net

Pictures on walls

I thought I’d share some of the things I’ve got hanging on my walls.  I mostly like to have original photos and pictures on my walls and I’m lucky enough to have talented friends who make pretty things and then give them to me. 

The wide photo one is a bit difficult to see, but it’s made from close up photos of flowers.  I thought this one was interesting because it’s by Ellen Stewart, the daughter of the person who made the Brimham Rocks anniversary picture I posted.  Ellen’s a graphic designer based in Brighton.

The chaos butterfly is by Thea Mallett who writes the always inspiring Happen Upon Blog – it’s glazed clay.

The feathers are created by Sue Fawcett and is an etching made using acid to create the plate, Sue’s a really talented textile designer and artist.

Finally the goldfish are in my son’s room (and I realised I’ve posted them upside down) and are by Pateley Bridge artist and my sometimes squeezbox player Annie Cooper.
