Mrs. Finndego has a few things going on in her life that we are really positive about. Her recent etching course has panned out into a full blown business proposition from her teacher John Mulvey. Originally called the Smallest Art School in the World and now tentatively called The Toy Box, John's vision calls for an art space where people can come and do art. It's that simple. It's sort of supposed to work in three different ways. 1. People can come off the street and use the space and the studio at their leisure. 2. John will tutor specific courses (etching,printing,life drawing etc.) for tuition. 3. There will be accommodation where people can come and stay and also have use of the studio. Mrs. Finndego aka Keri Ann aka Girl Friday has been asked to help out in exchange for free studio time and mentoring from John (in addition to copious amounts of plum wine). Since it's all early days and there is a lot of work to be done I wasn't planning on saying anything about it at this stage but John has put it out there in his blog here and we are really excited about the possibilities. We'll see what the future brings.
