ART@73 BRIGHTON MAY OPEN HOUSE

I had the honor of being asked to be part of Nick Orsborn's Open House, ART@73, during the May Brighton Festival. http://www.nickorsborn.com/  I love participating in the ART@73 Stanmer Villas open house as it has such a great vibe.  Not only because all of the artists work is bright and fun filled but because Nick and Moira themselves are bright & fun filled!!!  (and there is always a glass of Sangria waiting for you!)

Tehe - look at these guys hiding in the wonderful garden at ART@73.  These are just a few creations by the very talented Phil Duncan. His sculptures have so much character - what garden wouldn't benefit one of these heads? ! http://www.nickorsborn.com/may2012artists.html#philduncan 

Wee Baby Hare's by Victoria Lovell - SO ADORABLE! http://www.nickorsborn.com/may2012artists2.html#victorialovell 

These colourful bird bath's by John Warren made me feel like I was in Morocco.  The vibrant blue looked wonderful when the sun came out!

Wonderfully illustrated badges & mirror by Claire Montgomery - her work is magical & I can't get enough of the glitter!! http://www.nickorsborn.com/may2012artists2.html#clairemontgomery

Nick & Moira selling (well having a good natter as well ! )

Beautiful hand painted ceramics by Rosemary Land http://www.nickorsborn.com/may2012artists2.html#ROSEMARYLAND

I absolutely ADORE! these whimsical ceramic bowls by Katherine Morton.  You can really see her illustrations coming to life in these creations.  I would have bought them all but I was very happy to go home with just one... This lovely blonde Mermaid Bowl below.  She now has pride of place in our flat and has become a real talking point.  I recommend that you check out the rest of her work as it's wonderful! http://www.nickorsborn.com/may2012artists.html#katherinemorton

Nick and his incredible jewellery range! It always makes me feel like I'm in a sweet shop and I just want a bit of everything!!! I came away with a sparkly Cicada Brooch which I love.  Nick makes them in so many different juicy looking colours that I defy not to want to start a collection :) http://www.nickorsborn.com/cicadabrooches.html

The lovely Moira and her wondrous Sangria!!!!!!!! I want to give her a big cuddle whenever I see her - we love to have a giggle at ART@73 :D
