Is this Chantilly lace made by hand or machine? I think this one is handmade, but it’s very difficult to tell. I give a few clues about how to tell the difference in this week’s blog lacethread.blogspot.co.uk #lace

'What will survive of us is love'. The last line from Philip Larkin's 'An Arundel Tomb'. A watercolour from earlier this year. I was trying to capture the pain that I feel in my heart when I've lost someone. When your body finds it hard to move. When the pain is visceral.

Dreamy and calm, love @charlotteart work
Please, if you can, comment below with what your favourite element of my artwork is ❤️ I’m trying to find a sense of unity in my work that’s sometimes hard to see from he inside, and also figure out who is engaged with my work and why you’re here (I’m very grateful that you are)

Getting ready to welcome some @ntuart Fashion Design students into the #ntulacearchive this afternoon. One researching Spanish connections and the other, romance of the 1920s. Perfect concepts to study through lace design.
