Sophie's Blog - Artwork

Sophie Cox-O'Shaughnessy
Art Exhibit

It's that time of year again, here in Preston, for local Artists to be able to exhibit their artwork at The Harris Open Art Exhibition, The Harris Museum.

I am pleased to announce that this year I have submitted some artwork again - two pieces.

Please see the following link for more information:-

I think that it's important to consider:-

Artists can sell their work or exhibit it as NFS (Not For Sale).

Artists are required to pay a fee to submit work.  The museum also takes a 30% commission fee off any price the Artist advertises their work for.

If you're interested in art, come along.  You might just grab yourself a bargain, of original art and also be supporting your local artists as well.  

Other than that I see it as a chance to mingle with like-minded folk.  

In fact, just by submitting art-work, in the queue, I found myself mingling with a fellow artist as well as art-work being submitted in front of me being that of another friend in my lifestyle, depicted in the painting of a horse.

Looking forward to this event.

The event runs from/to:-

'14 December – 26 January 2020
Preview night - Friday 13 December 6pm - 8pm. FREE. Everyone welcome.'

How many days is it to 'Crispmas'?! By Sophie Cox-O'Shaughnessy

The Christmas ads are on TV again.
Frankly, I'm pleased I subscribe to a non-TV license and am not subjected to them in yer face all the time.

This article that I wrote IN 2017! 
(Click on/copy and paste link)
I think is particularly relevant.

I just thought that I would raise awareness that I wrote this blog, ahem, in 2017! Yes, that's two years ago.

'A Happy Crispmas!'

It's already been DONE, by ME.

Bah humbug!

I reiterate, this year there is one advert in particular a big hoo har has been made about it seems.
While Walkers etc. make millions, I write a blog, to support myself as an artist, for free, with ideas in like:
I ❤️ Christmas (inspired by a crisp I found, ahem, of the shape of a heart, representing the word love/luv).

I Saw It First by Sophie Cox-O'Shaughnessy

I Saw It and Wore It First

It's fascinating how fashion comes around time and time again.

I spotted this pic., advertising the company I Saw It First dot com with a lime green jacket that the model is wearing, this year.

Here are two photos of me wearing a lime green jacket, more or less the same design, oo, about twenty-four years ago, whilst posing on motor bikes (in Italy).  

Yes, it's me - I had my hair short and red at the time.
