Prior to that I was been busy on a set of interpretation panels and welcome signs at Wicken Fen National Nature Reserve, the oldest nature reserve in Britain. These are now located around the new Tubney Fen extension to the reserve, and at the main carpark and visitor centre.

I will be setting up my mobile studio and exhibiting work at Burwash Manor as part of Cambridge Open Studios 2008, on the first three weekends in July.

July 5/6, 11am - 6pm
July 12/13, 11am - 6pm
July 19/20, 11am - 6pm

Other artists at this location will be exhibiting silver jewellery, stained glass, prints, watercolours, landscapes and photography. Burwash Manor has tea rooms and a range of interesting independent shops full of lovely things, and is located just to the west of Cambridge:

Nothing lined up this year, but contact me if you would like notifying when we set up the next one...

The Bradt Guide to Chinese Wildlife
by Martin Walters
My contribution was a spell glued to the computer producing the set of digital maps for this volume (very welcome at the time as an injured ankle hampered other work).

The acquisition of Tubney Fen is a major step forward as part of the Wicken Fen Vision, the aim of which is to create a much larger reserve reaching towards Cambridge, offering new opportunities for wildlife and for public access.
