Inspirations



I have always loved History, Literature and Art.........................................................................................................
beautiful things, the stuff of dreams..................................................

flowers, butterflies, fairy tales, embroidered fragments, Chinese blues, Botticelli angels, Blake's visions, Burne-Jones pictures............................................................................................

amongst many other hints and wisps of the past..........................

to catch in my net and weave into mydesigns..................

which I hope others might find as beautiful as their inspirations.

Perfect day....Durham, DLI Stephenson exhibition and Constructivism lecture !!!!!

Beautiful blue sky -a perfect Durham Day (if a little chilly)-made the drive to Durham a lovely experience, as well as the walk up to the Cathedral.

The Stephenson, Abstract art, exhibition was well worth visiting if you like abstract paintings. Largely unknown, his geometrical art was one of  the first abstractionist experiments in Britain and he came from Bishop Auckland!!!!! This, along with the very interesting FREE lecture by the very knowlegeable Professor from Bristol University on constuctvism made it a very illuminating visit.
