Ocean & Aviary
My show at Ocean and Aviary last month, in Little Portland St. I really liked the 70s alpine lodge feel of the wooden walls!
The show focused on airborne and oceanic life. All the pieces are earthenware slipware, hand made and drawn by me. The dishes are available to buy online in my shop bysaw.bigcartel.com

Little Portland St, Window Sticker
Here is my window display at Exposure on Little Portland Street. My original design was made on Illustrator and started twice the size of the final piece. It included a Sperm Whale swimming across both windows, but in the end the budget didn't stretch to it. I'm really happy with what I ended up with, seeing my colours large and bold was a real buzz after looking at them through on a small computer screen. Hopefully I can do another window design in the future, as the whole process was so enjoyable.
It was fairly easy to put up, although a professional stickerer might notice a couple of glitches here and there. I got the sticker from Mint Signs, and they were great to deal with.
The work in the exhibition is available to buy from my online shop! It can be posted out only once the exhibition is over!

Dishes
Some new illustrations on dishes for my show at Exposure this month in Little Posrtland St, London. The theme of the show was up to me, so I decided to have fun and concentrate on current and ongoing fixations of mine, birds and the deep sea. Also I'll put up a couple of cat plates if I have space.

My show is called Ocean and Aviary. I designed a large window vinyl sticker for the front window of the gallery, which I'm sticking up myself, for the first time ever so I hope there's not too much of knack to it!

Trusty Servant Again
I visited Winchester College to put one of my figurines into its new display case today. It is going to live in one of the libraries there, under an 1800's scientific bell jar. The Trusty Servant is an invented character specific to Winchester College, and a kind of mascot for the college. one of the paintings of the Trusty Servant at the college dates to the 1580s. The College collects images and objects relating to the Trusty Servant for their archives. My figurine is in the company of some amazing books in the library.
