She Said - Exhibition 10-13 March

...SHE SAID is a group exhibition that celebrates the joys of text.

The show will be held in conjunction with the WISEWORDS festival that celebrates Women's History Month. This show is about what she said, how she said it and the influence that those words had. Therefore this show is not exclusive to women artists as by its very nature that would deny the importance of women's words.

...SHE SAID brings together a collection of artists from film makers, to illustrators, painters, ceramicists, sound artists and performers. Including C.A.HALPIN, JULIETA HERNANDEZ ADAME, JEMMA FOSTER, MARIA PAZ GARCIA, TIFF MC GINNIS, ANNABEL JOHNSON (thats me!), EAST END PRINTS (ARTHOUSE), TINSEL EDWARDS & TWINKLE TROUGHTON.


ILL BE EXHIBITING HERE, SO FOR A CHANCE TO SEE MY WORK, POP IN!

Slugs&Snails mark II

Well, ive been in the studio making some smaller vessels for a more 'commercial' side to my pieces.

These are the Slugs&Snails range.

The only difference to these vessels from the original range is that there is no surface relief, and of course the size. This makes them so much easier to reproduce.

These will be exhibited in a showcase at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in the Summer - they'll be on sale too!

"They Grow up So Quick" approx 23x11.5cm


"When I grow Up" approx 33x12cm


"Fancy a Quickie?" approx 17x7.5cm

This Morning - My Vase on national TV!

I 'schwopped' my 'Earlham Grove' vase for the This Morning coffee table!

My Vase will now be on the set of This Morning on ITV!

HURRAH!!

Ive had an apology from This Morning about Ruth and Eamonn stumbling over the description.. I was told they didnt have the details in time. What they should have said was:

"Handmade by Annabel using a mixture of hand drawn and computer generated images. The vase tells the story of 'earlham grove' a street in east London where my parents lived in the 1960s and shows the house where they had a nightclub in the basement called 'the jive dive'"

Happy New Year

Happy New Year Everyone*
