Congratulations Joanna on being selected for this

Congratulations Joanna on being selected for this years Royal Society of Marine Artists exhibition 👏🏻

Posted @withrepost • @joannaterryceramics

I’m delighted to have been selected for this years Royal Society of Marine Artists show @mallgalleries . The show is available online and in person until 1st October. This Parian Porcelain piece “Dunescape”, was cast on location from the mighty marram grass at Camber Sands . The marram is an integral part of the dune landscape holding a vital anchorage for the sand and is a rich habitat for plants, insects and small mammals. The exhibition shows 380 works inspired by the marine environment. My sculpture sits proudly in the main hall alongside artists Carolyn Simpson
ARSMA, Stephanie Smith, Robyn
Neild, Valerie
Kaufmann and many more. @mallgalleries @design_nationuk @seopenstudios @craftpotters @ceramicreview @dynamicdunes #womensculptors #marineartist #parian #marram #dunescape #driftwood #beachlife #cremerging #porcelain

It’s a sad time, but we share lots of happy memories of the reign of our Queen. Here’s one from earlier in the year when I was invited to run a Jubilee workshop at The Oaks College with @est.81_art A wonderful day and great to be able to celebrate the Queen’s life through art. #queenelizabethii #queenelizabeth #queen #royalfamily #stencilart #kentart #theoakscollege @brintoncreative

Storytelling by David Tovey 📖 Posted @withreg

Storytelling by David Tovey 📖

Posted @withregram • @toveydavid

I’m here because of what you’d told me that sunny day in June….
.
“These should be illustrations in a story David “……I hear that said when I show my plein air sketches to people, so I’m trying something new; combining the words that come into my head with the sketch.
.
I write my talks, poetry and short passages,
so it seems to be a natural step to combine the two.
.
Hope you enjoy it!

If you missed this fascinating show on BBC 2 last

If you missed this fascinating show on BBC 2 last night, be sure to catch up on iPlayer (and maybe get inspired to submit some work for next year's RA Summer Exhibition too)!

Posted @withregram • @royalacademyarts Brew some beef tea and put the telly on, because we're on @BBC 2 at 8pm!

(the beef tea will make more sense soon ☕).

In @BBCarts's 'Joe Lycett: Summer Exhibitionist', art-loving comedian @joelycett follows a wonderful group of artists as they apply to the Summer Exhibition. From submitting their works to finding out if they'll be hung in the 2022 #RASummer Exhibition, take a behind the scenes look at all that goes into the world's biggest open submission art show.

This slightly unnerving and brilliant artwork is 'I Used To Love You' by Birmingham artist Kevin Knowles – and you can find out it's fate at 8pm!

'Joe Lycett: Summer Exhibitionist' will be showing on on BBC2 and iPlayer.

👏 Thank you to the 34 SEOS members who attended

👏 Thank you to the 34 SEOS members who attended our afterparty and AGM last night, it was a great turn out and we loved seeing you all there! Another big thank you goes out to our hosts - the absolutely fantastic @reutheslostgardens - a beautiful venue and equally delicious coffees (and more!). We're so grateful to you for being so accommodating and allowing us to hold our event at your venue. 🌿

It was a wonderful opportunity to meet new people, chat, discuss key points from 2022 member feedback and talk about the future of SEOS with our brilliant Artists and Makers - and last but not least, to celebrate 25 amazing years of SEOS!
