Vistit to Galleries

A visit to the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum, Coventry, to see textiles and painting by Michala Gyetvai was amazing. She is an artist who paints and sculpts with thread giving her work three dimensional quality. What I found fascinating was the way her work stood out with a mixture of brightly coloured mixed fibres, including silk thread to make a statement. They were  incredible beautiful and inspirational.

Lost in Lace exhibition

This has got to be one of the best exhibitions I have ever seen in textiles, some piece were enormous and yet simply fragile and beautiful. The detail in the lace was incredible and so was the desire to produce my own work too, but on a smaller scale, was overwhelming. (Lost in Lace exhibition in Birmingham)

Below are the photographs I took at the show.
