Visit to Art in Action Oxford


I have just spent the day with two lovely friends looking around Art in action at waterperry Gardens ,Oxford .It was a perfect hot summer's day and we enjoyed seeing lots of the best inspiring art and craft in the country . Here are lots of photos of all the exciting things that caught my eye !
Iris Milward Poetry tiles
Mirka Golden-hann
"Interactive colour play" You were encouraged to re-arrange the colours however you wanted !
Barbara Gunter-Jones "Ghost Grass" This was a beautiful blue colour with delicate stitching .
Juliet walters "Containment " The two sections fitted together like a Russian doll .


This work was by probably my favourite ceamicist of the whole show Gwen Bainbridge .

Anna Hamburger's Lace gauntlets made of porcelain .
A detail of Jill denton's felt Wrap,it had beautiful colours and pattern.
I love anything in rows . Lovely mugs and bottles by Richard miller.

I can't remember whose these are unfortunately , the colour of the turquoise melted glass was amazing !
More work by Anna Hambuger . Love anything with buttons .
These bowls are also by Anna Hambuger ,they remind me of batik fabric designs .

We had a great day out ,especially a lovely lunch finished off with cake in the shade on a very hot day . We watched a great Raku firing demo too photos to follow soon .
Bye for now xx
