February; looking forward.
Emma Fozard
February is upon us and I'm enjoying getting stuck back into studio life after the Christmas break.
We've had some new tenants here at Marketplace and over the next few posts I'll do my best to show you around the place as I really value being surrounded by other creative people and being able to chat through ideas.
I have a couple of things to look forward to over the next few weeks. First up, a visitor to my studio next week; Beatrix Baker who is an artist/maker who uses steam bent wood.
I first met Beatrix at Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair and then at a Crafts Council Marketing session where she was a speaker. We'll being doing a skill swap session; hat blocking for steam bending, with a view to widening our creative practices in an informal setting. I'll show you what we get upto next time.
Meanwhile I am excited to have been invited to showcase my work at a brand new millinery event; HATstock will take place on Saturday 25th March at Hat Works, the museum of hatting in Stockport.
