Already on the wall ready for North East Open Studios beginning on 12th September. Venue 131 near Mintlaw . Pop in and say "hello"! (As I am running out of wall space there will be a "Sale" corner with some great bargains.) I also do commissions, so if you are looking for something special come and have a chat about it.

Plus lots of affordable prints, coasters, cards etc. Venue 131 near Mintlaw. Look for the yellow signs! www.joycetaylorart.co.uk

On Friday I had a text from a lady who was on holiday in Crovie and she wanted to come to the studio that afternoon to buy coasters. She had been to The Gamrie Gift Company and they had just run out........I was already en route to Gardestown in the most awful weather with torrential rain, flooded roads and thick fog! It was like rally driving, a hobby I don't intend taking up! I asked if she could wait for 30mins and she said yes, they would wait in the pub.Good excuse eh? 😆 I am glad to say she got her coasters and The Gamrie Gift Company is now fully stocked with coasters, cards, clocks, mugs etc. If you haven't been it is an amazing shop....my go to place for presents with a stock that changes with the seasons. I got myself some lovely earrings too!

Almost finished.........a few area to work on still and problems to solve but it needs a few days to dry first before I can do anymore. I aim to have it finished this week and once the paint is dry enough to frame, it will be off to Lesley at Frameworks Gallery Aberdeen. Hoping to have it ready for North East Open Studios 12th - 20th September. I need a coffee now having made one earlier and forgetting about it. Occupational hazard....teas and coffees are often cold by the time I remember them!
