This is a trial slide show just to see how the uploading process works, it will be replaced shortly with a finished version.

Diverse Printing

The Alice Holt Artists are exhibiting again, this time just two of us, myself and Shirley

We are showing at the Guildford Institute in Surrey, so if anyone missed us at our last venue in Bentley, please do come along and have a look.



If anyone wishes to contact me with regard to one of pieces my email address is in my profile.

Setting up and Private view

Well setting up in a new venue was a little bit tricky as we had a different space in which to fit our 2 sets of stands, but luckily, a combined brain storm got us to the perfect combination, after 5 hours of dragging stuff upstairs, shunting furniture, hanging/rehanging work, hiding existing wall pics, making tea, putting out the signs, etc.

It's amazing how quickly you forget how long all this takes and how much work it all is, still it was worth it in the end.


Here's Claire's lovely glass


And her superbly tactile pots


Shirley's wonderful lino cuts


And our only male member, my talented DH's superb photographs.


With a bit of selective screening of pics underneath that couldn't be removed.


And lastly my contribution





We had a lovely Private View, thanks to all those who visited us, and I sold Conflict 3, which was a great boost, and today I sold another large African inspired piece, sorry no pics as yet.

So we're all looking forward to tomorrow and hoping we have as many visitors as today.

Alice Holt Artists' Summer exhibition

As those of you who are kind enough to follow my other 2 blogs, where I share my daily life events and my educational journey, I say a big hello, and thank you for your loyalty.

To all my new viewers I would like to introduce myself.

As you will see from my profile I am a mixed media artist with a heightened eclectic personality, which tends to show in my work.

For the last 3 years I have belonged to a small group set up by 3 members living in the Alice Holt Area, hence the name. It is a beautiful forested landscape that encourages us all in our creative adventures.

The other members of our group are my husband a photographer
our friend Shirley, a lino printer and our newest member of this year Claire a glass and ceramic artist.

We will all have our work on show here:see map



As mentioned earlier my collections always seem to be quite varied so here's a small preview of some of the pieces for the benefit of those who can't come and see us personally, and to those who might be looking to refresh their memories after a visit.
