EXHIBITION AT FILLINGDON



The "Richly Wrapped" exhibition is on at Fillingdon Art Gallery, High Wycombe, UK until the 13th December. I received an email from Debs Digby to say that Oshun,  the last of my totems sold this week.



"Oshun" is a Yoruban Goddess, who encompasses a great variety of things, including love, sensuality, sexuality, fertility, abundance and diplomacy. She is widely loved as she heals the sick and has an amazing strength within her to bring people together as one. Oshun has a warrior aspect especially when protecting women and children. She is also known as 'Laketi', 'she who has ears', because of how quickly and effectively she answers prayers.

  15. Hello Robyn! I'm coming back to blogging after being out of it for a whole year. I've had too many distractions this year and it is nice to be able to get back on the blogging bandwagon and rediscover all the amazing things that still go in the blogging world, despite all the other social media apps now available! And of course, even nicer is it that I am finding a lot of blogs that I have been very fond of in the past, still going strong! So yay you and yay me for getting back into it, lol! As usual, your standards are high and your posts incredible, these ones being no exception. Come on over sometime and say hi ��

  16. It's been a while.... and I can't quite believe that as I drop by to read your latest post, I see your work is one show in the UK for just a little longer!! I'm sorry I won't be able to make it before the show closes on Saturday, unless I discover the knack of being in 2 places at one time. I have been practising, but still fail every time. Congratulations! It's so good to hear. And I will pay better attention so I don't miss the next one. Ax
