I was handed a form to sign yesterday relating to funding. Harrington Mill Studio Group has been set up – steered by a number of artists in the studio. A grant application is going in for marketing the next open […]
Feb 09- South Africa Katy Beinart In February I visited South Africa to try and track down more information about our familys journey and arrival there. Talking to my Great-Uncle Magnus was fascinating. While it was hard to distinguish between […]
I did have a decent amount of time in the studio this week but strangely didn’t feel as productive as I thought I might. I have so much to be getting on with and have a clear idea of the […]
As a result of the AN blog I receive quite a few enquiries from artists interested in the process of setting up HMS and asking for tips. Here is a reply today… "We are probably a little different to most […]
At last. It's already a week ago that we had the Open Studios and the opportunity to open the doors of our studios and other spaces to the public… I planned to do a live streamed run scheduled to take […]

Does anyone else think Easter is completely unnecessary? It's so infuriating that the studios/workshops/libraries at university will be closed! There are now no seminars left in our Fine Art BA degree at Kingston. Soon we'll have no more core tutorials […]
Not to do with my course at Byam, but have this gallery space all to ourselves, a group of us, in E London, for a week. Only 3 out of 12 showed up with work to install today… the studios […]
There’s been a bit of a gap as things have got even busier in the work up to the Open Studios next Wednesday(25th). Following the last post there has been some progress, but not in all areas: I still feel […]
St. Patrick's day. Feeling pretty despondent. Had a frustrating couple of days. Kenny and now Dominic, who are helping me, are finding it difficult to make progress quickly. Although they seem to have spent some time trying to push on, […]
I have had an amazing day! We went to Aberystwyth today as a group for marketing and self-promotion. Catrin Webster is our lecturer for the elective, and as Aberystwyth is her home town she managed to organise a very packed […]

Yesterday was bitterly cold- -24 and a wind-chill of -30!. Hoped to go for a run but it was far too cold and very overcast. We started off the day with studio visits, which were scheduled for the whole morning. […]
