Today was the day I intended to 'quickly' put the little finishing details to the Palm Sunday Kalender – but my, what a long time those little details take! The problem was that there were still a few pages to […]

Well, with only two weeks to go until assessment I suppose I'm slightly late in blogging my 'run up' to the degree show. Perhaps 'final strides' is more fitting! Unfortunately our term at D of J ends much earlier than […]

I've mainly spent the past week preparing for the installation I'm planning to try out next from Tuesday to Friday of the week coming up. I've booked the installation space in the sculpture area of the studio for these days, […]

Gemma`s chosen character is Mary A Jedbal, aged 28 at the time of the 1861 census, a dressmaker at no 25 Norfolk Street – though Eauzone cafe bar now stands on the site of 25. We are planning that Gemma`s […]
