Happy Monday! I want to kickstart the week by giving a shoutout to everyone who has joined in on these Margate Artist Spotlight posts. Big thanks to all the folks featured, and to everyone who’s been commenting, sharing, and supporting the awesome artists, curators, and arts orgs in Margate.
I couldn’t choose just one photo for @resortstudio so you get a whole carousel. There’s just so many wonderful things happening there!

Resort is a multidisciplinary arts organisation based at Dreamland providing studios for creative practitioners, alongside printmaking and workshop facilities (Hello Print Studio). The studio was founded in 2013 with a vision to create a space that encourages experimentation and collaboration in an inspiring and professional environment. Our members come from a wide range of practices and are at different stages of their careers, from emerging creatives to established professionals. We believe that working collectively, and within the community, we can achieve more.
Don’t forget to tag anyone who you think should know about the Almanac 😊 And as usual, the registration form can be found in the link in bio.

A closer look at one of my own freeform circuitry pieces, framed in a deep mono black box frame. No glass!
It uses sensors so the viewer can trigger lights and audio oscillators that independently shift dependent on distance.
There’s no circuit boards, just skeletal point to point wiring. A huge challenge planning and soldering. No wires can touch. They do take time but more to come… hopefully soon.

A series of matching frames for a bold set of prints for @anabanabalalana .
Custom painted / varnished frames and spacers with a range of raised float mounts and window mounts under anti-reflective glass.
Seen recently at the @piefactorymargate . Window mounted prints by @paperbuoy.print .

Apparently if it’s a triptych but double, it’s a hexaptych!
I had fun getting out the vernier for two raised float mounted hexaptychs for some nice prints by @ulijaeger13 .
Surrounded by maple, one waxed / one painted white and varnished.
Both finished with anti-reflective @artglass_by_groglass
