These are self-indulgent photos I know but I received a new puppy for my birthday and I am taking this opportunity to show off my dogs. Sam is the very smug dog with a bone and Archimedes (Archie) is the new addition on the left.

In addition to having an age crisis on my birthday I also lined up a few events and exhibitions for you to check out.

The Drawings from India and Language exhibition is moving from Hebden Bridge to Leeds. The exhibition will be moving to The Bowery, this is a wonderful place in Headingly that houses an art café, craft shop and teaching centre. It also plays host to four artists every six weeks in two gallery spaces, in May I will be one of them.
