5.8 x 4.1 – an Exhibition with a twist

Finale Night:  Thursday 8th December 5-7pm Place your bids by 6pm!

I have been invited to produce some work for the MMU 5.8 x 4.1 Exhibition to help raise funds for the year 3 Embroidery students.  This exhibition has a twist… with artists being asked to anonymously produce a piece of work the size of a postcard.

Bids start at £10 and bidding closes at 6pm this Thursday 8th December 2011.

National and Internationally renowned artists Alice Kettle, Rachel Kelly and Anne Wilson are amongst those who have work up for the exhibition – can you spot their work?

  1. Dear Emily, Do you take classes, I would be interested if you do, I live not far from you?

    Waiting for your reply in ernest,

    Yvonne.

    1. Hi Yvonne,

      Thanks for the message and apologies for the tardy reply. I am not currently running classes, as I have too many other projects on the go to be able to focus enough energy on running a regular class. However, Sarah at Rogue Studios does a drawing class, which has had excellent feedback from our creative peers. The classes are excellent value – you can find out more here: http://returningtodrawing.blogspot.co.uk/

      Good luck and if you need any more info email me at hello@emilypitts.com or drop in if you see me in the studio any time – 3, balmoral Drive.
