2024

NEW TO MY SHOP

This time last year I took part in an Instagram challenge to create a piece of artwork each day for 100 days. Over the 100 days I chose to make a small collage every day from my own original hand printed papers, and at the end of the project I thought it would be interesting to pair some of the collages with the found objects to show the inspiration behind my work.

I have now had seven of these images made into postcards which you can find in my shop if you are interested. You may also like to look back over my 100 daily posts on my instagram page.

Join me on instagram @helenbprintmaker to follow my progress through the 100dayproject2023.

My collages are inspired by the colours and textures of the coastline.

SOLO EXHIBITION

Solo Exhibition

Dorset County Hospital 13th October 2021 - 11th January 2022

The process of both making and looking at art makes us think. We can lose ourselves, if only for a short period of time, in gazing at a painting, a sculpture, a beautiful piece of ceramic or any work of art that challenges the imagination.

This escape to another world provides solace and relief from life’s burdens. I could think of no better place than a hospital to offer art in this therapeutic way and I was delighted to have been given the opportunity to place my work in this space.
