…december 2018 news…
” a rare, a written thing; the song that winter brings”
this year has brought changes as most days & years do.
the practice has a new studio in bala, and a new agenda here in the home studio.
both places afford space for me to work and to teach when requested.
for any information about visiting or learning ; even chatting do mail me
sonja@sonja-benskin-mesher.com
the new work agenda brings a focus in the studios on my own ideas and my inclusion in collaborative projects
so rather than list the projects where the work is shown i feel it enough to say that i will remain involved with those galleries and publications that request work
so as we lead up to midwinter i move forward with excitement and pleasure with this new beginning
