Scavenger Hunt January


For the January Scavenger Hunt we can chose 12 random photos.  Mine are mainly photos taken during recent walks around the city centre and the local countryside.
Thank you Greenthumb for organising the Scavenger Hunt and for the list for February. Wishing you well.

The windows at the end of a corridor walkway in the gallery are often decorated
by local and international artists.

Florence Blanchard's work is called Particles and has been
inspired by the dramatic Yorkshire weather.  The energy and vitality
 of the changing seasons is captured by bold geometric shapes
which swirl and collide, replicating the chaos of nature
on a monumental scale. Rooted in the knowledge that
all matter is made of particles - whether human, animal
plant or mineral - Florence's large-scale works magnify
what the human eye can't see, offering us her unique
macroscopic view of the world.

In the Making: Ruskin, Creativity and Craftsmanship
23 Jan-5 Jun 2016, the Millennium Gallery, Sheffield

This new exhibition curated by Museums Sheffield explores John Ruskin's ideas on making
through a broad range of historical and contemporary art and craft and brings together work
by artists including Grayson Perry, Susan Collis, Edward Coley Burne-Jones and Ruskin himself.
