Big studio tidy up. Here are before and after shot Big studio tidy up. Here are before and after shots for my back storage area. I still need to do a declutter and organise of some of the shelves, but it has a clear floor again! 

And when I'm feeling really ambitious I need to empty it out and seal up all the possible entry points as the squirrels are nesting in here and making a terrible mess, and I also saved a frog who was hopping around and got rid of two snails! Sadly I found another frog who had got into a large plastic tub and couldn't get out so is desiccated and perfectly preserved

What a wonderful joint effort card from my childre What a wonderful joint effort card from my children. Drawing on the front by my nine year old inspired by my public artwork #layersofbournemouth, poem inside by my 13 year old and apparently their 19 month old little sister suggested all the rhyming words 😂 and lovely flowers and breakfast in bed by my fantastic husband. The last year has been really tough for a lot of women, but it's days like this that make all that hard work worth it. Love to all of you.
Thank you Sculpting Lives, thank you Jo and Sarah, Thank you Sculpting Lives, thank you Jo and Sarah, what a wonderful set of podcasts. I have just binged listened to the whole set today whilst attacking the mess that is my studio and store room! I am a sculpture materials hoarder.

The studio is getting there, and I've been inspired to keep working out what I need to make and keep hustling the art world to get it seen. It's not easy being a sculptor and a woman as the series shoes, but it's worth it.

To everyone else, if you haven't already, go listen...

When developing the public art commission #Layerso When developing the public art commission #LayersofBournemouth I took inspiration from the local cliffs.

Bournemouth is located in the UK county of Dorset that has layers of rock that date 
from a vast spread of geological time from 200 to 40 million years ago and surface 
deposits from 2 million years ago to the present. 

The artist in liaison with the local 
council identified Hengitsbury Head, a SSSI site and local tourist spot, as a suitable 
location for the project. It is a site of international importance in terms of its archaeology and is scheduled as an Ancient Monument. The first people to leave 
evidence of their presence on the headland, came from Europe around 12,000 years 
ago. There is also a Bronze Age burial barrow.

A site was chosen on the edge of a path just below the crest of the cliff. This provided a backdrop to the sculpture that revealed parts of the local strata, colour of the cliffs and framed the sculpture in such a way that revealed the scale of the work.

Embryonic Heart Development Series: CS6 – Heart Embryonic Heart Development Series:
CS6 – Heart Cells Migrating 2
Ink and chalk pencil

The embryonic Heart Development series is a series of drawings that show how the heart is developing in the embryos in the very early stages of human development (Carnegie Stage 6 through to 10). The heart is the first organ to develop. Without it the embryo couldn't get any bigger as oxygen wouldn't be able diffuse across it fast enough. In this drawing the heart cells that start forming either side of the primitive streak in CS6, start to migrate through the streak and down into the mesoderm of the embryo.

Always great to see other people's photos of my wo Always great to see other people's photos of my work, here is Layers of Bournemouth. Its construction over 9 days in 2018 was witnessed by 30,000 people. 80 passers by both adults and children helped in the creation. 19 volunteers spent an average of 1.1 days each helping dig the earth, mix it, ram it into a large box or even help in the unveiling of the finished sculpture. It continues to have 600,000 visitors a year, although 2020 might not be quite so high. I hope it still brings interest and joy to the local residents who are still able to visit it.
