Fairy lights

I realise that winter is on my doorstep when i switch my fairy lights on at 5pm!  I bought these a few years ago from Hannah Nunn and they are timeless.

Suet Yi

I saw Suet Yi's work recently at the Northern Contemporary Craft Fair. She is a recent graduate from the Decorative Arts course at Nottingham Trent University.   I thought her work was infused with a sense of silence, delicacy and whimsy.  She has spent a lot of time travelling through Japan  and this influence is evident in her work.  Her little landscapes of birds and trees were delightful.

Terracota Plates with drawings of children

Raindrops

Her latest work is the 'raindrops' series.  As mentioned on her website she

'wanted to capture a single moment in time in the rain .... something simple but timeless".  

Chill out weekend

Something wonderful for the weekend J P Cooper.  The quality of the video is not great but just close you eyes and enjoy!

Hadieh Shafie

Ink and paper with handwritten and printed Farsi text 'love'

I have just discovered Hadieh's work.  Sublime!!

A constant element of my work has been the significance of process, repetition and time all rooted in the influence of Islamic art & craft.
