Two weeks ago I received a last minute email asking me to enter a competition with a chance to pitch for a space at an Intrigue Emporium event at Shoreditch town hall. Even though I was a little bit overwhelmed with packing for the move I thought why not give it a go. I selected as one of the creatives with the chance to pitch. 
I was unable to make it down to London but sent a video pitch along with other interviews I had done in my place and I was lucky enough to be one of the chosen artists to be selected for the show. It was on Sunday the 22nd of June, it started with a very early morning wake up call to get to Leicester station on time. I was looking forward to a quiet relaxing train to London but I had forgot that Kasabian had been playing the night before in a big festival in Leicester city centre so the station was full of sleeping fans many of which were still a little drunk!

The Town Hall was a beautiful venue and it was a great opportunity for me to show again in London and in such a stunning location. There was some other lovely stall holders that I met and my new work gained a lot of interest and seemed to go down well. This was a little confidence boost to show I'm going in the right direction. 

It's a pretty hectic time at the moment I'm just about to move house with my boyfriend so there are boxes everywhere but I'm still trying to get a few last pieces finished. I've started a new collection with my artwork combining the stitchwork and painting together, it's still in it's experimentation phase at the moment. I've embroidered the tattoos on some beautiful models that I have found so watch this space hopefully plenty more of this type of thing coming.
