Saturday … Spring!

Saturday; the first day of spring! This week has passed in a flurry of glorious stuff.  At work we completed a couple of tasks and began some new ones; no great ceremony in the grand scheme of things, but a milestone nonetheless.  My work experience colleague got a longed for post at the Bodleian Library at Oxford, a wonderful step in her career in librarianship!

For a day, I did some ‘voluntary’ work with the Reading Guild of Artists, putting up an exhibition; which I will tell you about more later.  Suffice to say it was for me a filip and small step for my career as an active artist; if not directly or creatively. It was a an insight into the organisation, politics, relationships and the administration thereof.  All done in a nice companionable, welcoming, comfortable and more important, professional way.

Today, I am off to a morning of hands on creativity; a small band of artists are sharing their relief printing skills at the Rising Sun Arts Centre, I am taking my letterpress but hoping to learn collagraph printing.  So, a nice way to finish a week and begin the weekend …. may we all have a good time?
