    That’s me (on the right) working the mulled wine stall on Saturday at the Kings Heath Big Party.  A huge thanks to everyone who came down and bought a cup of something warm.

    In fact, a fair few thanks are in order:

    I’ll soon be putting up some info about the next project that’ll see CiB getting out and about in the world. I’d best write some posts about other folks first though.

    From Jo Ruth‘s ‘artist info’ page:

    Jo studied Fine Art at Reading University and has lectured in Art and Design in colleges in London and the West Midlands.

    As a painter and printmaker, she has a growing reputation for her striking colourist painting and mixed media pieces. Her work covers a variety of subject matter, abstract and figurative, and is influenced by imagery and experiences on travels in the UK and further a-field.

    Btw, I saw some of Jo’s stuff at the Moseley Arts Market on Saturday (next one 19 Dec). This post has nothing to do with her very kindly sending me one of her Christmas cards. Honest(ish).
