I first met Ian Mowforth a number of years ago, when he commissioned me to make some baskets while he was still dividing his time between London and his Sussex hideaway. Now he’s taken the plunge and made the countryside his home, complete with a wonderfully spacious new studio and he’s invited me to join in the celebrations!
How could I possibly resist three days surrounded by his fabulously lavish paintings? With their colour, energy and wonderfully untamed spirit in mind, I’ve been making a collection of baskets that are colourful, adventurous, and perhaps a little wilder than usual.
Come and join us for a glass of something lovely and a few nibbles, and take the opportunity to discover (and perhaps take home) some stunning work by a handful of guest artists and makers, alongside Ian’s own paintings.
A celebration of new beginnings, creativity and country living. I’d love to see you there!
