Sue had been thinking about a fourth kinoptic piece to do with Bristol.She had been exploring venues and ideas when she came across the very iconic Harbourside view .It appealed to her but as a painting with water mixable oils .She just went for it choosing a sizeable canvas and produced this stunner . The colours really sing out and put her stamp on it .We may still see another kinoptic piece as she was very taken with Concorde ,especially the instrument panels ,see Circle page.
Sally had been looking back and brought along her book compiled when doing City and Guilds.
They researched and explored such a variety of British embroidery .She wondered whether to make use of parts to create work or to just stick it back in the drawer .We wondered if it might be donated to an organisation to keep as a very useful resource for research or practical purposes.
Viv was buoyed by her exhibition with the 1904 group ,selling a piece created during Lockdown.Being the only textile exhibitor she attracted a lot of comment and admiration.
She had begun preparing for another piece of work .She has chosen a thistle and made preparatory studies ,colouring and choosing cloth as well as cutting out stencilled leaves.
