Mlkwood 2018 vs 2019!


So can you believe it, the gallery is a year old already!

Wow it has changed! We opened 28th October 2018.

I cannot actually how bare and minimal we was when we opened the doors.

We have gone from this.....


To this!

It is great to see how we have developed, the gallery is now full of colour and lots of handmade and creative items. 

With Christmas coming up, its certainly got lots of choice for presents for loved ones!



The website is slowly coming along nicely. We are hoping to get this up and running asap so for those of you who aren't local, can purchase such gorgeous items online.

We can post anyway so if anyone did ever seen anything, just drop us a message.

Otherwise we are open:

Tuesday-Saturday 10-4pm
Sunday 11-3pm

Exhibition @ The Alex May Gallery, September!



This month I have had the exciting opportunity to exhibit my work at The Alex May Gallery in Bridlington. Working in the Gallery has been a great experience. It has been inspiring to share and discuss my own work with the other artists involved and meeting visitors with a love of art.

At the Gallery there is a selection of 6 artists including myself showing. Even though there is only a few of us, there is a great variety of work being exhibited which include textiles, painting, jewellery making, mix media art, and small sculptural art.

If you follow me on my facebook and twitter you may have seen me chatting about getting some prints done. These are now ready and having their debut for sale in The Alex May Gallery. Below is a little peak of these. The Alex May Gallery is based in the Historic Old Town of Bridlington. It is such beautiful location.




You can see a selection of my work and other artists in the window display. We have tried to capture a dark and mysterious theme with two of my dark toned printed lengths and one of Kate Jordan's beautiful paintings. 




We have the stunning work of two local artists. Leanne Broadbent is a mixed media artist who produces quirky narrative canvas' and prints based on children's literature.
Kate Jordan is also another fine artist who produces both figurative and expressive paintings. Her influences are books, fairy tales and her imagination. 



We also have photographer Keith Bruce a local landscape photographer, and Maybelle Rose who produces tiny little paintings inside nutshells. 



Here are three of my furnishing lengths I am exhibiting from my final collection from University last year. I still love them and it's great to get some feedback from people who've never seen them before.



The Gallery will be Open next weekend also 11am-4pm. If your in Bridlington please pop by and say Hello!
We are also hoping to be open in October. I will keep you informed of these dates as they come.

Guido Daniele- Fantastic Work!



The website www.lostateminor.com has introduced me to the work of Guido Daniele. I was so amazed by such detail in his work. Born in Italy, he graduated from the Brera School of Arts with a Major in Sculpting. Through the 70's and 80's he explored his love of painting in advertisements, tv commercials and programs.





During my Final Major Project of my degree I researched into the art of Trompe L'oeil. Guido Daniele uses the hands and body to as a blank canvas to create these beautiful detailed paintings. I love how the natural shadows of the hands/body add to create depth.
