SCULPTURE EXHIBITION

"Heart, Head and Hands"

27th June to 19th Sept.

entrance free



Sixty-three exhibits by internationally acclaimed artists at the University of Leicester Botanical Gardens.

I had a lovely time in the Botanical gardens last Friday. I'm alittle down in the dumps, with my children and partner all going back to school. I was need of alittle inspiration.I love sitting in my studio painting,however,not on Friday afternoon! Therefore,I grabbed my bike and headed down to the gardens. The sculpture in set in beautiful surroundings. I thought it worked really well. I confess that most of the work was not my cup of tea,however, I just enjoyed the looking! If you know what I mean.

If your Leicester based, then I would highly recommend a visit! You never know what will be round the corner,behind a tree or down a path.

A spot of lunch in the Italian garden and I was ready to go home. Look sharp Beetham-Davies!

now then. where was I?

I do like to be by the seaside, especially one with a carnival. I had lots of fun with my family on a much needed break. GOOD. I am ready to get back into the studio, turn the radio on and knuckle down. I feel like this is the start of a new term for tickety-boo. I am buzzing with idea's.The order inbox is very full.Couldn't quite rid myself of my old pinnie,I'm too fond of it. It'll do another season. I hope all my lovely customers had wonderful days for their Wedding,Christenings, and new arrivals. Thank you once again for your lovely comments about received clocks and boxes. It's the icing onthe cake!

Rainy Days and Mondays ( well Tuesday)

My rainy day bags are flying out the tickety-boo door at the moment. I wonder why? Every cloud.......

Twits Rule

It's been a hot one this week. I have had to resort to plugging in the fan to cool off. I'll make up for it (carbon wise)somehow.I have been throughly entertained by Mr Dahl. I love to listen to audio books whilst I paint away. I love The Twits. Still laugh heartily as Mrs Twit thinks she shrinking. I was given the book by a very good friend. I was 21!(ahem).Still, I shall pass on twit love to my children. Hmmm, what to listen to next week......Happy Week end dear reader.

It's been busy!
