There's a storm outside but Spring is on the way!

I am sitting here in the house, looking at Storm Ciara outside.  Last week was Imbolc, which I have never heard of until this year.  It is the mid-point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. The days are definitely getting longer and I am always cheered when I notice that there is light in the sky before I leave for work and after I come home.  Such a relief.

This spring I am part of an art fair at the Garden Museum called Super Nature.  It is a curated art fair and all the artists are inspired by the joy of plants.

I am making some new work for the art fair.  As always plants are at the heart of my work.  Working through the winter, I have been remembering last summer, which was very hot.  Funny how you can't quite recall what it was like, that heat.

So here is the link:

And here is the link to the exhibition that will be on at the same time.  Looks great.

Hostas  and white willowherb.  Inspired by a visit to Juliet's garden last June on a very hot day.  We could barely move and had to wait until sunset before going for a walk.
