2nd weekend
I've just finished prepping for our 2nd Open House weekend, feeling slightly anxious as the weather forcast is not looking good with rain on the way. What a week we have had with the local newspapers, choosing to use our, now famous 'easelle' photograph as the picture to promote Art in Ditchling and had such great response to our Blogg. So it is such fun learning how to finally join in the world of 'blogging' Followers please keep with us and share our progress. Must dash as Ruth has arrived and I'll go and make her a lovely fresh coffee, Oh and people have started to come around so Tiggi is now barking, help! (posted by Jo )

Day 1
Jo has just taken down our open house flag at the end of a very successful 1st day.
Ruth and Bryony have learnt how to blog, hence the laptop! Niyati was off for the afternoon after her morning stint at 'The Handmade House' with her textiles.

open for business
Well it's raining today, day 2, and we have had a steady stream of people visiting our very beautiful and easy to find space since we opened on friday night. With visitors coming from Rome, Manchester, London and surrounding towns and villages it has been a very good start. There are 5 red dots already and lots of encouraging comments, one of the loveliest and often repeated one being; "doesn't the art work well together." As I sit here between flurries of people coming and going I like the variety of mediums that we have on display; oil painting, acrylic painting, pastel, pen and ink drawings collage, monoprinting, colour monoprinting and screen printing!
