Well, it’s almost opening day for NEOS, and here’s the poster which we produced for it. My contribution is the yellow-brown picture of curlews, second from the right side, half way down. It’s not a great reproduction of the original and you can't see it at all clearly, but it’s just supposed to be part of the larger poster, and it’s fine for that
The poster for our exhibition
It goes without saying that if you happen to be anywhere near us, please do come by for the opening, which is next Saturday at 7. There will be lots of refreshments, some live classical guitar music, and lots of conversation!
I’m not at all happy with what I’ve done for the exhibition, but you win some and you lose some, and I’m now inspired with some interesting new ideas to work on after the show
Here’s one of this year’s efforts - a collection of the crows that are so common around here. They may not be very colourful or exotic, but I love the way they collect together and have loud cackling conversations with each other. The picture is done in a combination of embroidery and acrylic paint, which probably sounds unusual, but it's a combination that can work very well
Crows in the Crow Tree
Hi Mia, I think your poster looks great. The crows are fabulous and look so realistic against the gnarled tree and ground cover. They resemble a bunch of women gathered together for a gab fest to discuss the days events.

I like both your bird designs, the curlews and the crows are both very nice. They will do well at the show. Your work stands out, always so exacting in details.
If I were close I would certainly be there pointing out how your birds are so realistic and how nice they would look in their decor.
Best wishes for a great $howing :-}
