Artwork at Craigellachie Hotel

A few members of Speyside Artisans are now displaying their art at the Craigellachie Hotel in Speyside. Lesley from the group organised the setting up of the wall area - what a great job she has done (as you can see above). Work in progress:

On display are Peter Harvey of Speyside Images (photography), Lesley Boyd (Integlio Printing) and Kathryn Abrahams, Lazy Daisy Glass (fused glass) - to be added next week.

There will be more items available soon when we install our glass cabinet in the hotel reception area.

All artwork in available to purchase.

Strathisla Distillery - last day

Our last day at Strathisla was a little quieter than the weekend, but the Artisans were busy at work (Joyce Edwards, beading, above)

Peter Harvey, Speyside Images' display at the distillery. Peter was in the Regal room - what a beautiful room.


Lindsay Watt, ceramicist, has been working away at the Strathisla Distillery building (above). She has now added texture to the outside walls and cut out windows.
Speyside Artisans are now preparing for North East Open Studios, which takes place in September. In the meantime, we are also taking part in some local events. Will update once details have been finalised.

Strathisla Distillery Project Update

Lindsay Watt's project is coming along - the distillery tops have now been added (above). They took all day to sculpt and put together, but looking great.
It's been a lovely sunny day today - lots of foreign visitors coming along for the whisky tour. The exhibition has been encouraging with lots of people coming to see us - which means there have been more visitors to the centre. All positive stuff!
Here is some more of Lindsay's work:

Last day tomorrow, so if you haven't already been, pop along and say hi.
