Wow! Where has the time gone? Typing a blog post now feels further away from normality than it ever did before. I took on another fantastic job role back in February artworking for the RNLI so the time (plus energy!) I have to paint is slim to none these days. That doesn’t stop the inspiration from bubbling up inside me like a witches pot though (see what I did there given the time of writing?) so I still managed to find some hours to create my colourful friends for you all (albeit not as many as before #busymumma).
Even though I have taken on more work, I have also committed to exhibiting my colourful animals more than the usual once this year. “Great!” I hear you shout from the distance. “But where?” comes the following cry. Well lovely people I shall tell you now…
Kingston Maurward Christmas Craft & Gourmet Food Fair
Kingston Maurward, Dorchester
9th and 10th November 2019
10am – 5pm
(Don’t mistake this one for the Macmillan Christmas Craft Fair happening the following weekend)
Canford School Christmas Craft & Gourmet Food Fair
Canford School, Canford Magna, Wimbourne
23rd and 24th November 2019
10am – 5pm
(Another stunning venue that I had the pleasure of exhibiting at in the summer)
RNLI Christmas Craft Fair
RNLI College, Poole, Dorset
Sunday 8th December
11am – 4pm
(naturally couldn’t say no to this one and i’ve heard it’s a cracker of a day! Santa arrives on a lifeboat, what more could you want?! Oh and mince pies and the RNLI Choir and ME! #winning)
I had to make sure I have something new to add to the collection for Christmas this year so hold on to your feathers… please welcome ‘Blue Flash the Kingfisher’ and ‘Delilah the Emu’. The ‘Blue Flash’ original is up for grabs (please message me directly if you want to buy) as will prints, cards and coasters. ‘Delilah the Emu’ has been SOLD already but prints, cards and coasters will be available.
So lots to look forward to this Christmas and i’m sure you’ve been thinking about Christmas presents already?! I look forward to meeting you all and seeing some returning customers. It’s a pleasure. Thankyou for reading and i’ll see you next month!
Please note that my Etsy shop will be updated with all the new stock (eventually and when I get some extra time) but if you wanted to purchase something before such time arrives then please just drop me a message. I respond very quickly! (much to the disappointment of the other half who thinks I have a phone addiction. Obviously not true in the slightest)
