Graffiti
Markfield Park

Last week I ran a workshop of Colourful Collage for TreeHouse’s Parent Participation Project. On a beaming hot day, we set up camp in the middle of Markfield Park, surrounded by flower beds with a backdrop of some stunning graffiti, a skate park and an adventure playground designed by the children who use the day centre at Markfield. Some awesome colours to inspire me too!

Today I had to go to the Southbank Centre for a meeting, and had a sudden idea before leaving my flat this morning, grabbed an old sample of knit that I did about a year ago - finally! I think I have found a use for it!!
After leaving the Royal Festival Hall, I headed over to the Skater Park to find the new home for my square of green knitting...
I was a bit nervy at first and thought someone was gonna come over and tell me off for doing stuff there, but no one did, I wish my whole bag full of yarn to string up there, with those pillars, I could do some installations like my previous work.
Anyway here’s what i got up to...
This piece is far too small for this amazing pillar.
Knitting resting on wall whilst i look for a better location.
I found a railing - perfect!
Tied on with a bit of pink yarn.
Looking out to the Thames.

Warped tree

I went for a walk through Clissold Park the other week and look what I found!
Two trees that had been warped up together with red yarn.
This look so beautiful, I would love to know who did it.
Its still there now, a week later.
My friend spotted another tree wrapped and warped in the same way, in London Fields too.
