A Festival of Colour
Members were asked to take as inspiration, a festival from anywhere in the world. A range of countries has been chosen; from India and Asia, the Americas and back to Europe. We hope you enjoy our exploration of colour from wherever it has taken us.

The Entrance by Phoebe Anna Traquair
The set of four embroidered panels The Progress of a Soul by Phoebe Anna Traquair which hangs at the National Gallery of Scotland. We chose to work on the first panel of the series, The Entrance.
The image was divided into eight sections and one was chosen by each member of the group.
The panels could be interpreted in any medium, keeping to the constrains of size so that the finished work could be displayed together alongside a print of the original work.
As there are 7 members this year, the final piece of the octadic was planned to be included as a printed image, but at the last minute Pamela Mansfield, Wendy Smith’s mum, volunteered to stitch the design which had been printed onto fabric.
