Just a couple of events I need to tell you about. I have been asked to put some artwork up at a corporate event taking place at The Loft, Leeds on the 2nd December. My work has also been requested to be displayed for six months at LS1. LS1 offers a very high profile viewing opportunity to their many clients from National/International business. The club hosts high level business events – from training, meetings to celebration. The owners of LS1 are very proactive supporters of the arts and are very open in their desire for my work to be seen by an optimum audience who will hopefully buy or commission. They are also the couple who bought my artists books and prints from the Trinity exhibition

I received a letter only this morning informing me that I have been accepted to the British Craft Trade Fair in Harrogate this coming April. The fair has run successfully for a number of years and represents the very best of British makers. Buyers who attend the fair come from a wide variety of outlets such as galleries, heritage outlets, interior design companies and independent retailers. The BCTF  also host an online catalogue called Design Edge. I have so much to prepare for the event but I am very excited that I have something so nice to do in spring, and being busy will not allow time for any post christmas winter blues to set in!

And now for the really fun part of the post how cool is the snow! I am loving it, the dogs are loving it, I have already made three snow angels and confused the dog by throwing snow balls for him. And everything looks so pretty and bright, it is such a welcome change to grey days with no light.

Above is a picture of my town square on Christmas Eve at midnight for our annual carols in the square! So this is my last post until the new year. I will leave you with this; “Merry Christmas To All And To All A Good Blog!”
