As a member of Kalamkari Stitched Textile Art I'm delighted that our group has been invited back for a second time to exhibit our work in the Donald Watson Gallery at Waterston House, the SOC Headquarters in Aberlady, East Lothian ~ which is about 15 miles east of Edinburgh.
We will have over 80 pieces of textile and mixed media art on display, and with the exhibition title 'The World Outside' the work is themed around nature including birds, flowers and the landscape.
The exhibition opens on Saturday 13th January at 2pm and runs until Wednesday 14th February. The centre is open every day between 10am and 4pm.
The gallery display is beautiful and lends itself well for a lovely relaxed browse, not just of the artwork but the shop itself has plenty of lovely things to lose yourself in. All Kalamkari work is for sale and although most is framed and ready to hang there will be a few ready to frame pieces as well. Most artists also have blank greeting cards for sale depicting exhibited work.
I hope that whether you're near or far you'll be able to pop along, not only to see the exhibition but to enjoy Aberlady bay nature reserve with its wildlife and views. If the weather is nice there are lots of lovely walks, check out the very beautiful and peaceful Seton Sands bay at Longniddry and maybe a long walk to Gullane.
