An strange and for me rather wonderful year drawing, painting, printing, planning editing out and re-planning different parts of the work from drawings of individual flowers, to trying to learn how to use augmented reality and been lucky enough to work with wonderful Chris Price at Curio Zubr.

Learnt how to use a laser cutter and create DXF vector drawings, screen printing with thermochromic ink, working with marvellous John Rowden at the University Science glass department. Throughout I have been working with my very dear kind friend; Terry Jordan who can be seen below, both working on “Temple to Buttercup” which he routed out for me.
Thank you most especially to Dave Lawson, who has been an inspirational and gentle teacher, listened to me prattling on in an excited state, and of course without him this would never have happened.
The whole team have been wonderful and kind, if I name each, it might seem that I’m not grateful to everyone, so thank you all. Nick Wray, curator has been a delight to work with throughout, generous in thought and time showing me special plants of the gorgeous botanical Gardens, which is such a very special place and a huge credit to him.
Below is some of the work that I was working on, not all is in the exhibition, certainly not the bees.
