New and familiar people, places and seasons

Jane Frost • Aug 30, 2019

Sometimes life just goes in a direction I could not have anticipated. This week I am really happy to say it's the right direction and to announce that I have been selected for Artillery Arts 'Grandad's Island' project.
The theme Grandad's Island comes from a lovely children book by 
Benji Davies, its about a journey and sharing memories.
I will be making alongside students and volunteers. Participants in workshops will learn how to weave and make sculptures with willow so if you are reading this and think it's something you want to do email volunteer@artillery.org.uk

My design is like an upturned boat, that may have landed recently or a long time ago - depending on the story you tell.

The other installation I am working on this week is for Angelsey Abbey's Dazzling Dahlias events, it's one of my favourite National Trust gardens locally so to work there is a real bonus!



More images and details when the work is ready to be revealed!

With all that is going on just now I can say I am truly grateful for many things. Including family, friends and clients and of course my health.
Making to brighten dark days

Making decorations is always a combination of the very familiar and a little bit new.
New shapes for this season
by Jane Frost 06 Nov, 2019
I have been making frame baskets, they are a bit more flexible and less structured than traditional round or oval ones.
Looking forward to sharing stories
