Norway was fantastic – in so many ways. It was exactly what I needed (without even knowing that I needed it). Michael Petry’s project is quite something – a beautiful site-specific installation that includes contributions from 100 international artists and […]
I can not believe that its been so long since my last post. Just goes to show that time flies when you're having fun! I have spent the last week selecting the image for my summer show postcard and have […]
A busy day today with many things to think about – progress with our BMPD Professional Development initiative, planning Eastbourne Festival 2009 as I have recently become a Director of the new Eastbourne Festival company, and, now that we have […]
The meeting last Monday was a good chance to discuss how the characters are developing, and the practicalities of getting everyone together for a photoshoot. Setting a date was quite a logistical task, but we are now on a countdown […]
Today we were actually given our spaces, well correction. If they existed we would have been givent them. We had a meeting this morning with our 1st year helpers to find that only half the people had bothered to turn […]
Hi there blog. I wonder what this blogging is really about? I dont find it a natural thing, I never liked writing at school. I always felt I was writing the wrong thing….. and how can you possibly write the […]

I had my 24th birthday today (well, technically yesterday now) – birthdays always make me think back to what I was doing this time a year ago, and two years ago, etc etc. Not just birthdays really, but any fixed, […]
Things are slowly chugging away, saw some decent little exhibitions yesterday… made me realise that this really is just the very beginning and the limits on what I can do are put there myself…
ARGHHH>>>………. Some second year (you know who you are!) has, over the weekend, made a big installation in the space I am, sorry, I was going to use for my crit tomorrow. What a w**ker! Not only that but a […]
I think we are all getting quite nervous now. I have been struggling with my third book and it just has not been working. I realised in the process that I don’t actually like the character and find her quite […]
This is another post about a fellow student -Lisa Smith ([email protected]; smiffymax.wordpress.com). Again despite being on an Embroidery course Lisa’s work doesn’t focus on this but primarily involves drawing and weaving. She is producing wearable sculptures – objects that are […]
I have decided to order a greenhouse – just a little one. The sort that comes with a tubular steel frame – a bit like the frame of the gazebo we used at our Allotmenta Open Day – and a […]

Last week I cut all the 45 dandelion flower and seed heads that have grown on my doorstep dandelion in the last couple of weeks. I have pressed them in one of the wallpaper books which I was using on […]
One of the "spin- offs" from the "Children of Craig-y-nos" project – and there are many, the most obvious one being linking people together who had shared the sanatorium experience as children and now they are senior citizens and meet […]
We were told your Degree Show spaces on Friday afternoon, at first I am disappionted with my space, as they have put me in the sculpture studio which is a separte building in the car park. But when I went […]
What a fumey studio. Everyone except me has been painting their floors at some point in the past few days and it's really giving me a headache. Not to mention the various 'injuries' i have acquired with a hammer, drill, […]
