I visited Julia Vella's Lovely Open Studio this morning Number 88 in Highweek ,Newton Abbot open for 2 more days She inspired me so much I came home and made a new flag in her style but with a few embellishments , such a fun flag to make ! I Love it for its simplicity!
Mei Lim's Tin Shed is now famous (or Infamous?) There is an article in the Herald Express Property section about her wonderful creation, you may even spot a small flag in the pictures !

Shaldon Riverside Studio or otherwise known as the Tin Shed ! There is now a collection of my 'Festive Flags' for sale at Mei's fabulous new studio as part of Devon Open Studios , Venue 103 open every day 11-6. It is well worth a visit just to see the venue and then the added bonus of inspiring art as well!
We went to visit Lily in Mary Sumner's House and Studio that is open during the Devon Open Studios Wow , you have to go and visit, the whole place is amazing, buzzing with colour and vibrancy with the 3 Artists, Rachel Sumner is there as well, who all work with Colour so well.
