Hey hey and happy new year!!! This has been a long time coming. Sorry not to have been in touch since early December, but Christmas was busy and things have kicked off quickly this year!!!
First off, I was very excited to see this week that the wonderful Bristol 24-7 have used my photograph of, "Love Blooms" as the lead image for the article promoting the up and coming "Print Press & Roll". It is just two weeks until this exhibition opens on Valentines Eve (6-9pm) at Centrespace, Bristol. To celebrate, I will be offering "Love Blooms" with a £10 discount for a short time! Just enter code LOVE10 at checkout for discount to be applied to the order.
In other news, I'm thrilled to be continuing my work with Bristol Care homes, supporting their residents with creative activities. I work across four care homes each month and the work is amazing and fulfilling, filled with laughter, learning and joy.
I am also still leading the printmaking workshops at Spike Print Studio with refugees. This is something that I have been involved with for the last 7 years. I am supporting my friends, we have known each other for so long, and it's brilliant!!! Due to studio closure in January, we are restarting in February and I am excited to see everyone again!
My relationship with the Royal West of England Art Academy continues - my next RWA workshop will be with Happy Mondays on Monday 17th February. If you have any family or friends with SEND needs that might like to attend a closed session at the RWA when the doors are shut to the public, this is the workshop for you! Free to attend, February is fully booked, by the next will be 7th April, on the Monday of the Easter break. You can book this after the February session has occurred.
And lastly, I plan to focus on a new collection of work this year. Last year felt brilliant, working with tons of different communities and sharing my passion for print. I didn't do much for myself, so I plan to strike a bit more of a balance and carve out time to ensure that I create for me, too! Watch this space!
Until then, I hope to see some of you at the Private view on Valentines eve!!
Love love,
Amy x
