Happy New Year
Happy New Year
Here’s hoping that 2023 will bring greater peace worldwide and a more settled time for one and all.
2022 was a very busy year for me despite my decision not to work on a new book or have a major show. I still managed to work very hard and most importantly refreshed my brain by learning new skills. At the beginning of the year, I signed up for an online photography course with The School of Photography and as a result, my understanding of the science and the process has improved hugely. I only really managed a couple of the courses within the school but I am hoping to go back and learn more. At the end of the year, I also attended a poetry writing course with The Arvon institute at The Hurst in Shropshire. It was a wonderful experience, an intense week quite unlike anything I’ve done before and I’m still processing what I learned.
So, plans for 2023 include writing and an emphasis on more detailed and disciplined drawings. There will be a major solo this year at The Lighthouse Gallery and hopefully a new book is going to be in progress. I’m really looking forward to seeing what will emerge over the year.
I ordered new paint brushes, ink, and paint today and once I have caught up with all my orders I will be rearranging my studio – clearing the decks ready for the new.

The shop is now closed until the 2 January. You may still place orders but they will not be processed until the New Year.
I’d like to wish everyone a very peaceful and warm time this Christmas and a happy, healthy and creative new year.

‘This atmospheric group of works focuses on the last months of the year as the nights draw in and we head towards the Winter Solstice. They evoke memories of the glowing warmth of summer and the familiar echo of the cooling land. Always intrigued by moments of stillness and contemplation Catherine’s highly textured paintings invite the viewer to immerse themselves in layers of light and colour, breathing in the sharp scents of leaf and earth and the crisp bite of frost.’

Holyer an Gof Award
Holyer an Gof
I am absolutely delighted to announce that The Bee and The Sun has won the Holyer an Gof award for poetry.
‘The annual Gorsedh Kernow Holyer an Gof Awards were instigated in 1996 for books published in 1995 and are so named in memory of Redruth publisher and Cornish Bard Leonard Truran, whose Bardic name was Holyer an Gof – Follower of The Smith. The scheme was established and is organised by Bards of Gorsedh Kernow to promote books about Cornwall, set in Cornwall or in Cornish (Kernewek).
Each year about 60 – 80 books are submitted by publishers from Cornwall and beyond and these are read and evaluated by members of a panel of Readers. The winning entries are announced at a presentation evening held in July.
There are 12 categories, each nominated book receiving a Gorsedh Kernow Certificate. There is a winning book in each class/sub-class, which receives a Gorsedh Kernow Winner’s Certificate.’
Congratulations to all the other nominees and winners!
Many thanks to Fiona Kennedy and Zephyr publishing who are so wonderful to work with.
