I went for a meeting to discuss the next stage of the LAN proposal, a presentation in front of judges after Easter. I wanted to start working on this straight away, but I was invited to go and support some […]

I was handed a form to sign yesterday relating to funding. Harrington Mill Studio Group has been set up – steered by a number of artists in the studio. A grant application is going in for marketing the next open […]

So here I am….what do I say? Well, over the 3 years of the course I have not "found" myself or my practice until now, which is infact probably a little too late! I seem to have wavered from photography, […]

I thought that by posting my statement from earlier this year it may help me think about how to revise it before the show (it is not the best piece of writing, it was merely for assessment purposes); My personal […]

i have been asked to write a bit on being a parent and artist. so i have been thinking about it over the weekend. i suppose a bit of history might help. my kids are big, 18, 16 & 12 […]

back to semblance of sustainable living. thank you amy for pointing out something obviously very blatant yet to me was so not so. my new friend is called eric and I did meet up with him again chris. it was […]

Feb 09- South Africa Katy Beinart In February I visited South Africa to try and track down more information about our familys journey and arrival there. Talking to my Great-Uncle Magnus was fascinating. While it was hard to distinguish between […]

I was catching up on the news this morning as i haven't been updated about what is happening in the world for a good week or so now, this is due to me living outdoors every day continuing with my […]

My five-week residence uplifted and daunted me. Understanding culture differences was probably the hardest thing for me to deal with. Repulsion to touch, smell and see. Unfamiliar tastes and noise repelled and disturbed me from the environment at the worst […]

Apologies for all the double posts when commenting on certain peoples blogs. I cant delete them, my internet connection makes me believe it isn't functioning when i press 'submit', so of course i click it again and lo and behold, […]

Well, it's been three weeks since my last post. That pretty much sums up my life: massive spurts of activity only to be distracted by something else I want to try and swapping for a while. Again, the picture of […]

It's gone … the Pop-Up Gallery has done it's thing. It stirred things up, created a buzz (both online and in the real world), fired people's imaginations and then slipped quietly away late on Sunday afternoon. It won't be forgotten; […]

Working within this setting, I aim for a quiet revolution rather than art at the cutting edge. The Edward Jenner Museum is a museum dedicated to the memory of the 18th century country doctor who pioneered the smallpox vaccine and […]

went to the printers yesterday, so committed now to final 3. looking forward to seeing them full size on thursday, and checking them before they go to be mounted. hope I have judged the final preparations correctly. got a quote […]

I have been working on this mosaic very hard lately. I have got 32 sections to complete and have done about 10. My mind has usually imploded by now on these large mosaics, but this one is different. Because: It's […]

On reflection, yesterdays post was a bit of a rant and not entirely helpful or informative to anyone so I shall try to redress that. Looking at the other contributing parents I quickly noted only one 'Dad' entry that I […]

I have three weeks away from college but loads of work to do ready for the show. I kind of know what I want, just need to finalise it! It is quite scary though, how quickly it comes around but […]

Tutorials are strange things. For me they can be about having a useful conversation but can also send me off on completely the wrong track, but in doing so, in a round about way having been thrown off track I […]

I've been sending emails back and forth with Eva today, while I sand blocks of wood which might become shelves tomorrow. She's arranged a meeting with Coline Milliard (www.colinemilliard.co.uk) who is going to write about the show. I've seen an […]

Back to work. There are not enough hours in the day just to deal with distractions!! I have started a series of smallish paintings !8 x18in, 22 X 22in and 24 x 24in. Mixing greys again and building textures which […]

30th January 2009- We visit Hull We took great-grandmother Edith's postcard collection, and arrived in Hull on a very cold and bitter day. We began by finding the views in Edith's postcards, and on the whole decided that 21st century […]

The opening for Trying to Cope with things that aren’t Human (Part 1) attracted the largest number of visitors to a private view that AirSpace has had. Over 150 people came to the gallery on Broad Street in Hanley and […]
