Having decided I like the gold glass, I have to wait for a bigger order of it. So in the meantime I am working on the body.

Bykaterattray May 15, 2010

Last weekend I took my mosaic “Bella’s Secret” to the submission day for the Bath Society of Artists summer exhibition. I imagine it is a similar set up to the RA exhibition in London except there was not a mile long queue outside the doors! I had taken the park and ride bus and had…
