TeaSet in London

Meeting up at the British Museum last Saturday with the TeaSet to bring our textile cakes and cups together and plan the rest of the collaboration for the Prism show in May.  Willeke drove over from Holland and Anna flew in from Sweden for the weekend, just proving their dedication and faith in the project.  Tried to see the Ice Age Art exhibition but it was completely sold out so went to the Brunei Gallery to see an amazing World Textile show which featured some quite exquisite work.

Emma Pickering


 

Emma Pickering is a good friend of mine living in Dorset who makes wonderful stuff.  This is a small acrylic on board that I bought a long time ago from her which reminds me of a jollier version of Antoni Tapies in Tate Modern...which is also a LOT bigger too!  She also makes sculpture as well as fabulous silver jewellery.  More pics to the right on the Artist Friends page.  This is where I'd like to show off my friends that are so talented and need more recognition in the wider world.
