by the sound of a cuckoo

Yes I've gone all summery.

My family and i have finally left the Brighton & Hove area and have decamped to Wiltshire after a collective 30 years of fun fulled life by the sea.

I am getting this blog up to date with forth coming shows and amongst the bird song that serenades me, i hear a cuckoo... ahhh how lovely.

I feel all this is rather fitting to this particular posting for a day sale i will be taking part in, held by the unique Selvedge magazine.
It is sure to be a feast of delights.

so much for next week... February 2010 already but i did manage to have most of January off with the child. just snuck in a quick bit of work and created two new prints for this rather lovely show which starts this friday the 5th, in Lewes. lots of fine prints to purchase for a loved one or yourself and all gallery commission goes to charity.

£10 gifts...

off to Lustre tomorrow in Nottingham for a weekend show- 7 & 8 November, with Ely in tow and a helping hand from my dear mother. I have managed to whip up some great new gifts (if i do say so myself) printed handkerchiefs of 3 designs to be purchased for a mear £10.
Other barging gifts for the forth coming festivities will be at all my shows coming up and on my etsey site or you can contact me direct.

so much for maternity leave...

well it has been some time since my last communications but i have a rather good excuse as i've been busy with this lovely young chap.
My son Ely K French, who was born on the 5th of August.
Fortunately he is really good and lies on my desk at the studio while i get on with my work. obviously this won't last to long but i am taking full advantage of it at the moment.
I am getting ready for Luster at the beginning of next month.
Having a sort out of my website and putting some jewellery together for some new shops/galleries.
i will add full details shortly as well as some new products for Christmas.
