March meeting

Elizabeth Smith had been recommended to us by a number of people so I eagerly anticipated her talk called “Fabric of Life”.  I was not disappointed.  The first thing was the range of items that Elizabeth was able to display. Panels, hangings, Christmas decorations, installations and a huge floor cushion.  Next was the variety of colour and texture. Look at the photos to get a taste of what we saw.  Elizabeth had a number of differing inspirations for her work,  frequently, like many of us ,  going back to the natural form but then applying a contemporary slant.   Much of her work had been done in cooperation with community groups. some of it is installed in public buildings.002 010 012 004 005

Elizabeth   elizabethrfsmith@blueyonder.co.uk will be exhibiting at Touchstones in Rochdale from May1st this year. I would recommend a visit.
