I hope you've had a really great summer. Here at the studio it's 'back to school' time. All the usual classes will be running, most starting in the first week of September. If you would like to place a booking please could you reply this week as I have just arranged a last minute break over the week beginning 27th September. 

I have included start dates below. If you are unfamiliar with a class or would like to know more please don't hesitate to get in touch or look at my website: http://www.dabhandstudios.co.uk

Also take note that the sculpture classes have changed structure slightly due to the slightly more 'workshop' nature of the subject, making the studio time more flexible.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Big friendly dreams

A local school came to the studio for their annual art adventure. They have a literacy project involving the BFG so we made dreams in jars. On Thursday we will be making a big inflatable giant.

exhibition

I've got seven pieces of sculpture in this exhibition. The preview is from 6.30 on friday. It would be fantastic if you could make it.

Bronzes

I have now taken delivery of my first two bronze figures. Cast in limited editions of ten these can be bought at any of my exhibitions or by getting in touch.

I have separated out my art work from all the other stuff I get involved in. My work can still be found at
http://www.jamiefrost.com/jamie_frost/fine_art_home.html on a newly designed site with new artworks added.

All the other stuff is at: http://www.dabhandprojects.co.uk/Home.html. There is now a dedicated page for the project space on this site with more pictures and details- please take a look.

Thanks

I really should share the outcomes of my classes more often. Look at what one of the sculpture students made.

On the turn

Today I had the second day of a three day school workshop- more on this tomorrow.

I also found out that my bronzes would be ready for Holmfirth artweek (I should have had more faith in the foundry). The wood turner couldn't make me any bases at short notice so it was up to me. Nipped into town after the workshop and found a nice bit of walnut (relatively)cheap as it was bent like a banana. I went back to the studio with it, uncovered the lathe from where it had been buried two or more years ago, cleared a bench, assembled the blooming' thing and managed by some stroke of good fortune to make two very pleasing bases without major incident.
