Pauline was a very generous speaker who not only handed round all of her exhibits, but also allowed the audience to talk amongst themselves about the pieces they were handling, this is often something we can't do while the speaker continues talking. She gave us a potted history of her life as an embroiderer and showed both work books and finished embroideries.
Below are some of the images from her work sheets, when she realised that she should specialise in textiles
Pauline explained that as an Art teacher she had to come to terms with teaching pottery and learning how to use a kiln. The 'stones' below are her work from the kiln
thank you Barbara for doing this blog, get to resee some of the Pauline`s work.
ReplyDeleteI popped into the exhibition yesterday in Ripley, unfortunately my brother arrived to take me out to lunch so did not have long enough there but have quite a few photos which I will load up and look at later
Good morning Margaret. Did you know that if you click on one of the photographs they all come up as a slide show?
