Three things to remember in November and beyond!

Remembrance

During the month of November Dee has reminded us to take a moment to think of those who lost their lives through conflict, of any kind.   Dee created this small two inch square by finger rubbing pastel crayons against the torn edge of paper and adding french knots for the poppies.

 

Make It, Food and Gift Fair in Naas

Lucinda Russell, Arts Officer with Kildare County Council has asked us to remind everyone about the ‘Make It’, food and gift fair in Aras Chill Dara, Devoy Park, Naas on Thursday, 7th December.   With over 50 producers from across the County this looks well worth a visit. It is open from 4 – 9.30 p.m. at the Council Offices

Artist in Profile: Gladys Paulus

An Interview with Gladys Paulus by Vanessa Scott-Hayward 

I have followed the work of Gladys Paulus for many years now, I was first introduced to her when I picked up an Issue of the magazine Crafty.  I was just setting out on my own handmade journey and I had recently started felting as a hobby. Seeing the work of Gladys inspired me and struck a cord.

Just last year I rediscovered her through her facebook page where you can see a snapshot of all the amazing things that she is up to.  Her work is theatrical and inspirational. Gladys was incredibly generous with her time in answering my questions and I think you will agree it is a wonderful insight into her inspiration and how she works. Enjoy!  Read more
