NEW WORK IN MY SHOP.....

I have finally gotten round to adding some new bits to Broken Bird Hospital (my etsy shop).

 www.etsy.com/shop/BrokenBirdHospital

The new additions are all one of a kind screen prints with hand drawn details in pencil and biro, making them totally unique and absolute bargains, ranging in price from £4 - 6. They are the result of an experimental afternoon at Badger Press ( R.I.P.) and so are imperfect, (hence the pocket money prices) but will none the less brighten up a rainy day.

Where have I been I hear you ask?

The more observant amongst you may have noticed my absence from this blog and also from my shop (which is now back in action!)

Recently, I have been exploring my options in regards to branching out from art and illustration and was lucky enough to be awarded one of  25 bursary funded places on a Conservation of Historical Objects taster weekend at West Dean College.

It was an incredible opportunity to explore a career swerve into conservation and making of furniture, clocks, books, metal or ceramics. As a teen I had a keen interest in history and archaeology but chose to pursue the other fork in the road and study art instead so it was interesting to see how my interests have come full circle and led me back to historical objects.
