I will be at the Wilmette Art Fair on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August. My Booth number is 330 and I will be in a similar position on Central as in previous years.
I will be at Printers' Row Art Fair on Saturday 9 August and Sunday 10 August and then at the Evanston Art Fair on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 August.
I will be resuming my programme of Studio Visits in the UK when I return in September. I open my UK studio to visitors and artists who would like to explore my techniques and methods. Visits are by appointment and can be for any time that suits which could range for a couple of hours to a full day. I will demonstrate techniques that interest you and you will be able to have a go at performing them yourself. If you would like to make an appointment contact me here. If you are nervous about access to the remote location of my house I can meet you in Combs and drive you in. There is no charge for these visits! It will also be possible to have a look at my garden on the day.
For those who want to order from my website I will be able to mail to US customers from August 1. I will be able to mail to UK customers from 5 September.
I have been asked over the years to make books with water colour paper and now have some available. They are approximately 10" x 7" and have fabric collage "Artists" covers. Examples may be seen here. You may purchase them in the shop on my website here. I will have some with me at the upcoming August shows.
I have replenished stocks of both my standard (8"x 6") and large (10"x8") Textile Journals. They may be purchased here or at Art Fairs this year.
My products may be ordered from the following shops on my website:
Art Journals - themed
Art Journals - places
Large Journals
Denim Covered Books
Leather Covered Books
Textile Collages with Calligraphy
Art Aprons
Shoulder Bags
I also have some special offers on Books and Mounted Textile Collages.
I can produce a customised version of any of my products which you may want for a special occasion such as a gift. Examples of previous commissions can be seen here. Email me to discuss your ideas and requirements.
I continue to add to my range of Greetings Cards and have retired some designs. My current range can be purchased online here. I am selling the retired designs in mixed packs of 20 for just £15! They may be purchased here, at the bottom of the page.
Customers at events often ask me about my studio arrangements and where I make my products. I have set up a page on my website devoted to my Studio Workspace and it may be seen here! I suggest that "clean and tidy freaks" give this a miss!
My products are all made from recycled materials. I have an ongoing requirement for:
1. new or used envelopes. All sizes are welcome and any quantities will be gratefully received.
2. hard back books
3. fabrics including bed sheets
4. denim jeans
5. in my printing I can use any papers or card such as calendars, unused paper pads, coffee table books, magazines made from heavy weight paper, unembossed wallpapers etc.
Recent Summer pictures of my garden may be seen here.
If you have questions on any of these matters feel free to contact me.
