Gatting Ready

There is always a rush of inspiration before any of the shows and the Spring Originals is coming up soon, 16-19 April at Lansdowne Park in Ottawa.

It has been a busy time in the studio in between time away in Halifax to deliver some long awaited custom work, which was well received, and booking a visit back to the gift shop at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia for May. As well as just placing work this week with Old Orchard Crafts, just outside Fredericton, we will have work at the AGNS gift shop in May.

I have been building earrings the last couple of days and will spend the next week filling in gaps in the inventory. So lots more pendants yet to go.

Unfortunately I am missing inspiration for a call for entry, but that happens sometimes, when a theme is not making a piece clear in my head. There's a still a couple of days yet before the deadline so maybe...

At least some inspiration, and perhaps a touch of panic as the realization that we'll be one the road in two weeks has hit, is making for some great work for the spring shows, including the one in Woodstock on the 9th of May.
