As ever the months fly by so quickly and already I find myself only a little over three weeks away from my first solo exhibition – We all Cast Shadows at the Heart Gallery in the heart of Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. As you may know the body of work for this exhibition has been occupying my thoughts for …
I mentioned this in my last blog post but one of the main things that teaching Unearth Gather Create has taught me – is that we are all learning – all of the time. And what a learning curve I have been on in so many ways. Putting together a course is something that a year ago seemed an absolute …
The last few weeks have been incredible in so many ways. I can’t think that I have put more hours or heart into anything as much as I have the current E-course and the rewards have been unexpected and soul-enriching. The connection with the students, the discovery that I have something of value to say and to teach, the digging …
I am delighted to announce that registration is open for the second running of my e-course Unearth, Gather, Create. This 6 week course begins Monday 23rd June and runs till 8th August with a week break in the middle. Places are limited as I give personal feedback to everyone posting work in the Facebook Group and the course sold out …
What happened to last week I ask you? For me – it went in a flurry of a studio move around and clean up which took the whole week in-between work and life (and I am still not done). But Oh My Goodness it is so much better. The move around was mainly prompted by the upcoming filming I have …
At last, I have something new to show you. The last couple of weeks have been so full of ‘doing other things’ that my painting time has been seriously neglected – but I am not one for being able to focus on too many things at once – I like to go wholeheartedly at one thing at a time. So …
This week has been overwhelming in the best possible way. Since the opening of registration on Monday, three-quarters of the places on Unearth Gather, Create – my first every e-course – have sold. Really, that is unbelievable to me. I have been sending out confirmation emails as the places have been taken so if you registered, then you should now …
So here we are – months of planning (not including the weeks of filming I have ahead of me) and registration is now open for Unearth Gather Create. Thanks so much for all the interest and feedback I have received in this brand new adventure of mine. I do hope you will join me. So now if you had read …
There has not been much art happening here this week – just lots of admin (tax return – so glad that is over) and gearing up towards the opening of registration for Unearth Gather Create on Monday. Don’t forget there is the option to pay by instalments so if you would like to take advantage of that then email me or send …
I take a lot of photos of my work as I am creating it as I love to see how the paintings transform as the layers and marks go down. Sometimes the changes are unexpected and it feels like a very organic process. I mainly post them to instagram ( I am gillianleesmithartist if you wish to follow me there) …
