Visiting artists on the MK Art Trail

I spent a day following the Milton Keynes Art Trail to visit: Alena Rajtorov - weaver & felt maker, Helen Taylor - printmaker, Jenny Timms - stained glass art, Arja Parker - mixed media paintings and woodwork sculptures,  Brian Stainton - wood turning and woodworking plus Margaret Taylor - painter and mixed media. Such a beautiful variety of work and venues, Great hospitality too.

Also visited The House gallery during my time in Olney. Fantastic selection of fine art, glass, sculpture, textiles, ceramics, and jewellery. www.thehousegallery.co.uk

Fanfare Exhibition Launch - with... a real fanfare!

Today I attended the official launch of the The Bucks Open Studios Fanfare Exhibition in Aylesbury, opened by the High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire, Francesca Skelton.

A superb display of prints, paintings, ceramics, sculpture and jewellery by over 130 artists and makers taking part in the Bucks Open Studios event this coming June.

A real trumpet fanfare and string quartet performed at the event.
