Events Through The Rest Of The Year

Hello!

I hope you have all had a wonderful summer and been enjoying all the lovely weather of late.

I've been busy working away on a couple of things over summer including some very special workshops to be announced very soon and my new project Forgotten Little Creatures, but there will be more about both of these very soon I promise. For now I just wanted to update you on various events taking place through the rest of 2014 so here goes:

AUTUMN WORKSHOPS THIS WEEKEND!

Saturday 27th September or Sunday 28th September (both days will be the same)
Shepton Mallet
£60 each, limited to six people per day, for more details and to book click on the link below and select Autumn workshops, I still have a couyple of spaces left for both days and it will be the perfect time to learn some new tips, tricks and techniques ready to shot the stunning autumn colours.


Exhibition and Sale of Work

During the whole of October I will have work on display at the Cheese and Grain in Frome. There will be a selection of canvases and mounted and framed prints, all items will be for sale starting at just £40 and many of the items are one-offs so once their gone that's it! My work will be on display in the foyer, cafe and bar area, and we're just confirming a date for a meet the artist evening so stay tuned to my Facebook or Twitter pages for confirmation of a date.

Doulting Christmas Craft Fair

I will be there again this year and I will be having a bit of a stock clearance as well in preparation for next year, so it's a perfect time to pop down and see what I've got. It will just be me as Rosemary will be with her work at the South West Quilt Show so do pop along and say hello!

Saturday 15th November 10am - 4pm
Doulting Village Hall, Doulting, BA4 4PL

The last three events are all a collaboration between myself and my mum (Rosemary Hillman), showcasing and selling not only our individual works but also work that we do together.

Christmas Pop-Up Shop at the Black Swan Arts in Frome

We have secured the pop up studio just inside from the courtyard area (right by the cafe) for the last two weeks of November. The shop will have a lovely warm Christmassy feel to it and we will be launching a couple of brand new products that we are current;y working on.

17th November - 29th Novmeber (inclusive) 10am - 5pm.

Shillingstone Christmas Craft Fayre

This is a brand new one for us, but it promises to be a really good one with everything being handmade.

Saturday 6th December, 11am - 5pm
Shillingstone Church Centre, Dorset, DT11 0SW

Salisbury Christmas Craft Fair

We will be back at Salisbury again this year after a great time last year and this will be the last event of the year before we take some much needed time off over Christmas and New year!

Sunday 14th December, 10am - 4pm.
Salisbury Guildhall, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP1 1JH

That is it for now, but in the next couple of weeks I am hoping to release details of my 2015 workshop schedule and will be sharing the launch poster and short video for Forgotten Little Creatures.

Bye for now

And finally, I would like to share with you my event photography page (which I have finally got around to setting up!) and blog. I am running the event photography under my married name to keep the two areas separate, although I take my creativity that I use in my wildlife and nature photography over to my event photography to be able to offer something different.



Well, that's it for now, don't forget to pop in and say hello at our shop in Frome if you are in the area. Coming soon will be an update on the adders I have been photographing, some wonderful orchids and of course plenty of bugs! 

Bye for now!
