    This episode is really packed with good things.

    Join them as Andy shares how he developed his art from chalk drawings, to sculptures with glass & cement and how he feels that the digital world holds so many different ways of developing art further…”we need to keep learning & refreshing.”Andy also introduces us to the power of serendipity and really importantly how to approach Galleries.

    Steffi & Chrissy also finish the year with a short review of their own professional development and you can join Steffi as she celebrates “Biggarglassworks”10th anniversary! https://instagram.com/biggarglassworks?utm_medium=copy_link

  • Episode 7: Biggar Little Artists' Exhibition 2021 - a short introduction

    Episode 7: Biggar Little Artists' Exhibition 2021 - a short introduction
    Oct 22 2021
    Steffi & Chrissy are exhibiting along with 21 other artists at Loaningdale House, just outside of Biggar in Scotland. This is the first full exhibition that many of the artists have taken part in since the pandemic, and as Steffi & Chrissy were attending to their own displays they couldn't manage to interview everyone, but were able to give a snap shot of how some of the artists were feeling about being able to display their work and speak to the public again and "take some time" and get to know the artists..instead of swiping through social media!...
    just like the voice over says.
