Progress on ‘Essex Wood: January’

I’ve been working hard this week on the first BIG painting for my Essex Wood project. Here is the progress so far!

LOTS still to do, but it is beginning to take shape.

This week I’ve also been contacting all the lovely artists and makers who will be exhibiting at this year’s Lexden Arts Festival, to make appointments to visit them. So looking forward to starting my visits next week – this my favourite part of preparing for the Festival. Talking to artists about their work, and seeing their studios is such a pleasure. I always say this, but I think this year’s selection is particularly good and interesting, with some really stunning work. If you want to have a little preview, check out our Festival website at www.lexdenartsfestival.org.uk 🙂
