Beatrix Potter

Watercolour on paper

 

Beatrix first drew the little mouse Appley Dapply in 1891. Over the next ten years she invented new characters and composed verses inspired by traditional nursery rhymes. In 1905 she sent Norman Warne a manuscript containing 19 verses. Although he selected his favourites, the project was shelved. It wasn't until 1917 that Beatrix encouraged Frederick Warne & Co to publish a small selection with some of her original, and some re-worked, illustrations.

Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature

(March 2022 to November 2022)

 

Celebrating the life and work of one of the best loved children's authors of the 20th century.

Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature is the first exhibition to tell the complete life story of Beatrix Potter, one of the best loved authors of children's fiction in the 20th century. Realised through a major partnership with the National Trust, this playful and interactive exhibition invites visitors of all ages to rediscover this household name and explore the full breadth of her achievements and multifaceted life, from storyteller to natural scientist and conservationist.

The exhibition showcases over 200 personal objects including artworks, rarely seen letters, manuscripts, sketches, coded diaries, family photographs, commercial merchandise and personal artefacts. It celebrates her early talent for storytelling, her business acumen and her fascination with the scientific study of the natural world, as well as her passion for sheep farming and conservation – a legacy still felt today.

Across four sections, the exhibition follows Potter's journey from London to the Lake District, where she eventually settled. The first section, Town and Country, provides a backdrop to her childhood in South Kensington in London; Under the Microscope highlights Potter's interest in natural science; A Natural Storyteller reveals her almost accidental journey to becoming a best-selling author; finally, Living Nature follows Potter to the Lake District and celebrates her profound impact on the natural landscape.

December ASM Challenge

So Bobby's little containers stole my heart and I had to give it a shot, so I made this little pendant out of 20 gauge sheet that I cut and textured then bent around a metal rod and then soldered the seam closed. Next I cut the bottom plate and soldered it on just like you would a bezel. Then I made the little lid out of sheet that I domed slightly with a dapping block for a nice high rise shape, and soldered a thick bezel to the bottom to act as a.... flange is it? To go inside the vial to make it close, lol. Then I soldered the little jump rings on the side to hold the handle....and voila! A vial! The lid closes smoothly and sticks tightly, pretty neat don't you think?

Handmade of sterling and turquoise on the softest leather necklace. This set includes a stamped scrap pebble, Primavera Turquoise, an antler, a westerned motif dapped disk, an arrow (because I am a Fletch) and a Hill Tribe silver bell. This hippy necklace wears long and jingles with a presence.

This series of resin pendants were inspired by a sheet of reproductions of vintage matchbook cover art. I thought it would be really cute to pair the matchbooks with actual matches and embed them into resin

 

They are made from brass with Ice Resin and various found objects, brass components, bits of paper, match sticks, and glass beads. The resin is crystal clear, and very reflective, and amplifies the collage inside the brass pendant with amazing detail. Unfortunately, they are so reflective, they are a bit hard for me to photograph, but I love each one dearly!

 

This pendant was made from a raw brass frame pendant, which was heated with flame to give it interesting coloration. Some of the pendants in this series were also hand domed with a hammer and dapping block. The pendant was then carefully filled with the paper and found object bits and covered with a water-like layer of crystal clear resin.

Reminiscent of Grandma's candy dish, this is a part of the Lotea series, incorporating moments of time and nature.

 

My Grandma had these old fashioned candy dishes with awful tongue splitting candy in them. Candy that tasted like toothpaste and oranges.

  

The candy dish is sterling silver and was punch cut by me, and domed by hand with my dapping block. The flower is fine silver and I made it as a replica of the original vintage design.

The dish is one inch, and the flower is a little under 1/2 of an inch wide. It comes on a 16 inch chain.

 

There are two half loop bails on the back upper portion of the pendant, that are invisible (hidden), so when hanging from a chain the bails can not be seen.
