CATHERINE HOWELL

Catherine Howell paints people she finds charismatic and interesting, often seen by many as those who live on the edge of society. Her work is about nature of humanity, which she is still exploring for herself.

In 2008 she was awarded the Ferdynand Zweig Arts Travel Scholarship. Her chosen destination was Havana Cuba. The artist spent three months delivering art workshops, living and socialising with the people of Cuba. Santeria & Havana is the work in response to the artists stay in Havana.

So Lovely Catherine invited me over for a private viewing a couple of weeks ago, it was quite an intimate affair, with free mojitos and lots of salsa music I was not complaining!! Her work is amazing. Most defiantly a talented soul, Catherine captures the moment. I could almost feel the emotion whether it is joyful or heart-rending I could see that these people had been through a lot. Catherine paints the underdog (those that are not subservient to the system) with such beauty it’s beautiful.

Obviously I took a few snaps it’s a given..Meet Catherine the lady behind it all :)

FEELINGS..

This morning I had an urge to listen to this tune, I woke up with a smile on my face and all I wanted to do was dance, so I did, it felt so gooood :)

When I hear this tune I immediately get a warm fuzzy feeling inside, ahhhhh I’ve been feeling so much the last few days. It’s nice to have some time to myself…time to reflect on life…Living in total freedom is what I live for… I don’t know what it is but it feels good. I’m happy.

Listen to the music..

BUT I ONLY WANTED VINTAGE…

Seen as I had the day off on Tuesday I decided to go on a charity run in town. Searching for vintage bargains, I normally find myself a happy chappy as the shire most of the time has a lot to offer! However the shops this week seemed a little dry (come on grandma get clearing lol) and nothing was catching my eye I did around 8 shops and found nothing!

Anyway after I finished the run I went to visit the sneaker boy down at // net @ Pilot. The plan was to say hi return some money and head straight back home…what happened?
My beady eyes started to wonder and Vinay starts showing me the new sneaker selection!!

BANKY SUNDAY

Sunday night I was looking forward to a good old daarnce, the totally enormous dinosaur was in town, Abdul was my plus one and music was my boyfriend happy dayz :)
Soo we went to the quarter first for some if you like me 079 me, 80s rave, electro bass and some serious prehistoric ravin. With this being my first visit to the quarter I thought the venue was real nice, pretty swish cosy and intimate. Situated in the cultural quarter a newly developed part of town directly opposite the curve theatre it’s something different from the grimey basement I suppose!

Anyway this is how pretty we were looking...
