Tides of Love – Workshops and Bursary from the Arts Council of Wales

Using the paintings I’ve been working on using the watercolour, ink and alcohol ink from recycled markers. I am developing a workshop for the Climate Conservation initiative in Wales and to launch the Gwyl Carrid – Festival of Love in Aberystwyth.

The paintings:

Sampler of connection
Sea of Love
Rough Tides
Tide of Transition
Turquoise Tide
Under a Red Tide
Tides of Love

Tides of Love was my favourite so in Contemporary Dadaesque splendour I destroyed it.

I sliced it, wove it and digitally transformed it for the CSM Grotto Digital Print submission.

Sliced Love
Woven Love
Digital Tide of Love

I used the Tides of Love as a grain for one of the studio pens I’ve made on Procreate.

I have a workshop booked for 2nd December at the Coleg Ceredigion for an art group that has young neuro diverse adults with additional learning needs and disabilities including Autism, Downs Syndrome and global development delay.

Sadie has agreed in principle for a workshop at 2 London place so I will confirm dates with her this Thursday. I am hoping to confirm a date in January for a bar in Aberystwyth and Aberration will promote it on their site for LGBTQ+ engagement. I want to make it as inclusive as possibly and will go online with some short Zoom workshops and a social media campaign.

I now have to submit my funding application for the events.

In other good new I was awarded a Bursary from the Arts Council of Wales to attend a digital marketing course in London at the BFI Southbank and as it’s at the same time as the Grotto at CSM I hope to be able to put my new digital marketing skills to use!

So chuffed to be awarded a bursary from the Arts Council of Wales
