Drawn by hand, one circle at a time
Pen drawings, watercolours, and ink made from the hedgerows.
A small open studio on a farm near Bingham, Nottinghamshire.
The Imperfect Circle
Who told you you weren't creative?
They were wrong. Come in.
The Imperfect Circle is my small open studio in Screveton, opposite Caffe Velo Verde. Pull up a stool at the table beside me. The materials are all here, including ink I make from the hedge, and they're yours while you're here. Nothing has to be finished or shown. Or book a seat at a workshop, four of us round one table.
Open Thursday to Sunday, 10 till 4. £35 a morning or an afternoon at the table, £95 a workshop seat.
Know someone who'd love it? Give them a morning at the table.

Letters from the studio
When you sign up, you'll get a letter from me, then one short thought a day for a week. After that, a letter about once a month, and whenever there are new dates. Leave whenever you like.
