Last night as probably aware was the opening of Martin and My collaborative Exhibition.
I had a wonderful night.
And while the night went smoothly and people were so complimentary of my work quite a few of my guys found homes, the night was made by all my beautiful friends and family from all different parts of my life coming out to support and show me their love.
And equally to all those people who couldn't be there who messaged, emailed , texted , tweeted and retweeted their support and thoughts and who were there in their own way.The amount of love and support I received was amazing and overwhelming, and I'm so truly grateful to each and everyone of you who sent me support in your own way.
I felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
Yesterday morning I had been in a terrible state, but after receiving such love throughout the afternoon and early evening, i felt as i headed to opening that even if the night was a flop it wasn't because what mattered most in life was there in my life love.
And I even felt and feel that after it today. That success or no success this will be the thing that stays with me.
thank you all so much.
thank you isn't really enough
PS My mum is responsible for my pics, which I'm grateful for but she seems to have taken lots of photos of the same people, sorry other peeps who were there but not featured here.
PPS I will be posting more proper pics of all the toys, pre Cabinet in the next few days

JESS YOU ARE A SUPERSTAR!
Seriously gorgeous work. No surprise at all - all that red dotting that was happening. Couldn't happen to a nicer artist...
I am not at all surprised, you deserve every nice word and all the praise! I am just so happy for you and glad to see some faces that I recognize in the crowd, how lovely! What an amazing accomplishment my girl, I hope you realize what an artist you are!

It looks like it was so awesome. I really enjoyed looking at all the pics people were posting to twitter. Felt like I was there in a very small way. All your pieces look amazing. Brilliant.
