Good to see a strong turnout at the American Embassy
in Auckland this afternoon 19th July against Israel's unrestricted use and unchallenged use of Gaza as a live fire playground for test new weapons technology
I did this about 4 years ago and it was the first drawing that I fused zentangles with a face. It took me in excess of 28 hours to draw and I really enjoyed the process of doing it. It was also my first time using a tablet to draw on and it was a game changer in that I could really zoom in on my patterns, some of which are very small and intricate.

Believed to be Elisa Stewart performing at the Hoppings, Newcastle. 1940's
The Hoppings is a popular fair in the North East of England, held in the last full week of June every year on Newcastle's Town Moor, spanning around 40 acres of land.
The Hoppings started out as a Temperance Festival in 1882, when Newcastle Temperance organisations decided to revive the annual gatherings that they had previously held, but included different festivities to coincide, to counter-attract the 'Summer Race Meeting' at Gosforth Park, which was seen as a source of drunkenness.
It proved to be a great success and the fair is still being enjoyed to this very day.

✨SACRED HEARTH ASSEMBLY✨
.
Conceived in 2013 in Connemara, the West of Ireland, & now birthed, after a long gestation period, here in Connemara, the West of Ireland.. A diligent loop of practice to bring this little creative-company-being into the light..
.
SACRED HEARTH ASSEMBLY is handpicked & handcrafted ~ lightly-loved & ritual-made wearables, objects, & everything in between, an offering from my Sacred Hearth to your sacred heart. A synthesis of my daily experience, it's a blend of my longtime Sacred-Hearth-&-Home practice, my practice of collecting & curating, my interdisciplinary- & fiber-art practices, my lifelong practices of cross-tradition earth-based spirituality, my experience as a life(style) strategist & embodiment practitioner, my nature as an atypically-sensitive Empath & ChronicLife gal, & my love for sharing with others a new way of engaging with material goods & the spark of light I that see EVERYWHERE, wherever I go. 💥
.
All of the items SHA will offer {including something for every gender} are crafted or chosen expressly for their actively supportive, grounded-yet-uplifted 'good vibes' ~ because, being as sensitive as I am, if an item isn't happy, doesn't want to be shared, or or is simply tired out, I feel it on a physical level & start to hurt; & my intention is to share only what I would want in my life! 💫👐💫
.
Join the new emerging threads here at SACRED HEARTH ASSEMBLY & visit ➡️bit.ly/sacredhearthassembly⬅️ to stay in touch & experience more of what this project is all about for me ~ as an artist, a maker & keeper of a Sacred Hearth & Home, a citizen of the world, a woman company-proprietor, & as a human being.
.
Sending love & light, & may you feel the warmth & support of my Sacred Hearth in your sacred heart! 💝👛💋🍁🍂🔥☕️📡🌚➰🌌👖➿🙏💎👗👒🚪🔑🌰🍫🔻💃

The Shipley Art Gallery was bequeathed to the people of Gateshead following the death of Joseph Shipley, a local solicitor, in 1909. The architect’s plans for the Gallery were submitted to Gateshead for approval in October 1914. With hindsight, it is hard for us to imagine that towns were planning major projects like this during the First World War. However in autumn 1914, the British people were convinced it would be ‘all over by Christmas’.
Despite this belief coming to nothing, Gateshead continued to build the Gallery, even travelling down to the House of Lords to appeal against a ban on providing new materials except to the War Effort. The building opened in 1917 and is a testament to local pride and craftsmanship.

As a continuation of Friedrich August Stüler’s forum architecture, the James-Simon-Galerie serves as the new entrance building for Museum Island, completing the ensemble between the Kupfergraben canal and the south-west façade of the Neues Museum. Together with the ‘Archaeological Promenade’, it forms the backbone of the masterplan that was developed in 1999 and adopted as the basis for all further planning on Museum Island. The building is sited on a narrow strip of land where Karl Friedrich Schinkel’s ‘Neuer Packhof’ administration building stood until 1938.

Jacopo de’ Barbari Italian 1460/70-around 1516
A Young Woman and an Older Man , 1503
Oil on panel
An older man embraces and actively disrobes a disinterested young woman wearing a flowering wreath and loose drapery in the ancient style (all’antica). This dissimilar pair has been thought to be a betrothed couple, a prostitute and a client, nymph Agapes and her impotent husband, and a melancholic muse with an aging devotee of the liberal arts.
The variety of interpretations is due to the combination of unrelated visual types: the half-length beauty dressed all’antica from Venetian art and the immoral, mismatched lovers of German art. Venetian artists selectively adopted foreign subjects and motifs from imported paintings and visiting artists.
John G. Johnson Collection, 1917, cat 167

As we were sailing out of the harbour.
From: www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/shortcuts/2012/oct/17/da...
On a windswept mid-October day the harbourside at Ilfracombe is usually the domain of just a few fishermen, dog-walkers and hardy fresh-air freaks.
On Wednesday, it was heaving with people who had come from near and far to gawp, wonder and talk about Damien Hirst's Verity, a 20m-high statue of a naked woman yielding a sword and staring out to sea.
"Impressive," said James Silvesto, who had picked up his nine-year-old son Charlie from the local primary school and whizzed him down to the harbour on his moped. "She's a magnet. She's got a personality that draws you in." Charlie was not so sure. "A bit rude, a bit weird," was his verdict.
There had been scepticism in some quarters ahead of the installation of the statue, with some thinking the exposed womb and other internal workings distasteful. A few of those milling around while workers put the finishing touches to it remained unconvinced.
Engineer Melvyn Robinson said he found it "grotesque". "It's not my cup of tea, I prefer my art a bit more conventional," he said. "It's typical Damien Hirst, a bit Hannibal Lecter-ish. He can't help himself, can he?"
Boatman Paul Barbeary was also unconvinced. "I just think she's in completely the wrong place. What has she got to do with Ilfracombe? A mermaid would be better."
Pensioner Eve Martinson, who was holidaying in Cornwall but had decided to take a spin to north Devon to have a look at Verity. "She's a bit, well, naked for me," said Martinson. "I don't like her nipples very much, a bit too pointy. And those bits and pieces of her inside. You have no choice but to look."
But shopkeepers were delighted at the attention the resort was getting because of Verity. The ice-cream parlours and fish and chips shops were doing good business. Hirst's own restaurant (he also has a home nearby) was, unsurprisingly, full.
"I think the statue is brilliant," said Felicity Cowley, a consultant at the Driftwood art gallery, which had a few Hirsts on the walls. "A midweek day in October is not usually very busy. We've had loads of people in. Whether you like it or not, it's a phenomenon, an attraction."
And most of those who made the pilgrimage to Verity on Wednesday were positive. Tim Brownings, a local tour guide, can see the statue from his front room. "I was a bit worried she'd wreck my view of the sea," he said. "I thinks she enhances it actually. But for me the best thing is that she is getting people talking about art."
People like harbour master Rob Lawson, who was happy to wax lyrical about the merits of Verity: "One half of her is calm, beautiful; the other half is provocative – the human as an animal."
He is delighted the statue, on loan to the town for 20 years, has created a buzz. And if nothing else she will make it easy for visiting yacht captains to find Ilfracombe. "Some people say they find it difficult to see the harbour entrance from out to sea. They won't be able to miss it now."
My friend Mike, who owned the boat 'Merlin' which we did an overnight trip a few weeks ago, has bought a new boat - Santa Clara.
We planned a 5 day trip, leaving Swansea on Monday 5th August 2013 and getting back on Friday 9th August. We only had a rought plan, as sailing depends on the wind and weather, but we ended up sailing from Swansea to Ilfracombe (spent the night in Ilfracombe) then Lundy Island (spent the night offLundy), followed by two nights off Worms Head with a day trip to Caldey Island in between.
The weather was kind to us - except for light winds for a couple of days and then too much wind for one night!
An excellent trip.
