Catching up on Shop of the Week

Two shops this week as I fell a little behind last week whilst I was preparing for Reading Arts Week.  The first shop is Kitzie G who sells items with her beautiful botanical designs on.  You can read an interview with Kitzie here.

The second shop is Red's Ribbons where you can buy gorgeous burlesque-style accessories.  You can read an interview here.

Reading Arts Week is nearly here!

I popped down to the Penta Hotel in Reading to drop of two of my paintings this evening for this weekend's Reading Arts Week exhibition.  It's free to get in and showcases a wide range of professional and up and coming artists from across Reading.

You can find out more on Facebook, the Reading Borough Council website, or you can follow on Twitter.

It looks like it's going to be a soggy weekend so why not pop along for something to do!
