Last weekend of the E17 art trail...

Hurry, as the end of the E17 Art Trail is swiftly approaching!
This Sunday the 14th of September sees the conclusion of what has been the largest ever Art Trail.
No fewer then 300 artists have participated in making this years trail the resounding success it has been.
From D.I.Y. Craft Nights to High Tea to the more conventional exhibitions this trail has been more creative and diverse then ever.
The shop itself has morphed into a gallery space spilling out into the courtyard and garden
proudly showcasing work by hugely talented artists. Lino prints, paintings, photography and "The night in the window" has proven to be inspiring and great fun. We thank you all...artists,shoppers,friends,visitors and everyone for making it so special!
See you soon.

E17 Art Trail

Penny Fielding presents a plethora of exhibitions at Beautiful Interiors for the 2008 E17 Art Trail.

This year the E17 art trail is bigger and more diverse then ever.
Events range from a D.I.Y. craft night ( Now confirmed! Wednesday September 10th at the Castle pub 8pm to 11pm
visit www.craftguerrilla.com ), Telepathic dating to art on trees.

As a proud sponsor of local artists we're hosting no less then 10 exhibitions in the shop gallery. From painting, printing, jewellery, projection of entries for the 2009 Village Calendar to "A night in the window (with love from Walthamstow) a 10 site-specific installations in the window of Penny Fielding Beautiful Interiors shop inspired by the many faceted notion of love.

From extravagant dresses and parades of animals, to neon lights and suspended tea cups, guest artists have been invited to create a new piece of work looking at the theme of love while exploring light and scale. Hopper-esque scenes of night time emerge, placing the viewer at the centre of the piece.

The installations will be changed every evening and can be viewed street side on Orford Rd from sunset throughout the E17 Art Trail from 5th to 14th of September.

The deadline for the submission of art work for the 2008 Walthamstow Village Calendar has been extended.
You must e mail, post or hand in your entries by Sunday the 24th of August and no later.
Please note that this competition is open to all artists (of all abilities not just trained artists,we welcome everybody!), photographers, designers,illustrators etc...
Remember, it must be in some way about Walthamstow Village! Photos,drawings,paintings,sculptures and so on...
as Walthamstow has a diverse and thriving artistic community we're hoping to receive all kinds of art work!
So far the response has been good but we thought that we'd give it a little bit longer and a little nudge to all you budding artists out there!
As part of the competition the winners will have their art work published in the calendar and have their work included in our shop gallery exhibition during the 2008 E17 Art Trail.
