Tide Song by Laura Parker is available as part of 'Shadow and Shade', a virtual exhibition available on the BobCat Gallery website.

This is one of several pieces created with handmade washi paper, layering with paint, glazing and monoprinting that give subtle differences in tone, shape & texture...
"Really interesting - you can see a particular style in all of these photos, and it really brings out the best in these women."

Visit 10.30-6.30 today and tomorrow (18th October).

📍 Upstairs at Putney Exchange, SW15 1TW

It was lovely to catch up with Caroline Banks at her studio this week & plan exciting new adventures...

Caroline's work is full of energy - a subtle translation of movement & gesture onto canvas & paper, seemingly abstract forms that hold more than you think...
Female Five Million is breaking the silence on abuse, one story at a time, and through photography, storytelling, exhibitions and education, this initiative is challenging the silence that allows abuse to thrive.

The exhibition is here until Saturday, open 10.30am - 6.30pm, so do visit if you can!
A quick spin around the gallery for the Female Five Million exhibition - featuring amazing women with amazing stories. What started with a simple battle cry - Don't Tell Me What To Wear Or How To Run My Business - has blossomed into so much more...
Rebecca Tucker uses washes of acrylic and adds negative space to recall this feeling, Louisa Saffioti uses pastel, Kaye Teasdale has colour pencils and Tract Algar has oil on board... Each trying to capture a beautiful moment when the light and shade were just right ✨
I love how each of these artists have captured the dappling of light through leaves in their own way 🌿

All part of my current virtual exhibition, Shadow and Shade, these artists bring to mind the Japanese word 'komorebi' - soft sunlight filtering through greenery...
You still have another week to explore this powerful exhibition - I'm back open on Tuesday through to Saturday if you would like to stop by, or check out the links to a virtual preview if you can't make it to the gallery (links in bio now).

Thank you very much to everyone who joined us to launch and celebrate Female Five Million yesterday - it was wonderful to see so many supporters appreciate this fantastic project, and a brilliant example of what can happen when women come together to support one another 💖
