Well. it's been an eventful few days, as usual.Never a dull moment, thankfully.
The opening at Forth Valley Hospital and the giving of prizes has happened. It was really great to see people being acknowledged for their hard work, and very emotional due to the fact that it was all to heighten awareness of Aids.Amazing to be involved in this.

These are a couple of the photographs taken on the afternoon of the opening. It was great to see everyones work being exhibited.
Been working on the essay draft for the 20th Dec, as well as trying to get the promotional website and business cards etc. sorted for next week's presentation. It's great being able to design my own website. I'm still working on that. I have a meeting with someone at the Iris Murdoch Centre at Stirling Uni on he 12th Dec. She is going to have a chat about the possible residential centres that I can approach with my art sessions. It is a contact that I made when I went to the Business Start-Up. Brilliant that she can help with this. I'm really looking forward to that meeting.I'll be able to add more details on the sessions I can offer and I'll put on to my website after that meeting.
We have been given the Emperor's New Clothes as the next brief. I spent a wee while trying to decide what I was going to do in relation to this. I'm going to research Lies. What textures they might be and what shape, if we could see them. I'll decide on my finished piece soon, but the developments have been interesting. I'm doing textiles, but want to incorporate melted plastics and manipulated materials as well.I started working on the transparency of lies. These a a couple of the developments so far.
melted plastic,letter stamp with ink,metallic thread
acrylic paint,heat manipulated film wrap and silk threads
loose wet felting, metallic thread/plastic bags(melted, to secure all sections)
Got much to do, but enjoying working on my developments for this.
Will be back to report how things are going soon. Cheeeerrriooo.
