Bat for Lashes hits Cambridge!
Last Wednesday, Bat for lashes performed an amazingly intimate first UK set since over a year ago and it was brilliant!
She wore an unusual floor length perfectly tailored thin wool dress, adorned in deep jewelled green red and gold chinese designs, with matching headscarf. The look was quite different to some of her older looks, e.g feather headresses lots of body and facepaint, although nevertheless it was stunning and memorable.
I think that this new look was heightened by her fresh short bouncy innocent looking bobbed hair.
********************
There were new songs from the upcoming album which were definitely faster and more dance-able!
There was also a new song called Laura, which was intense but hauntingly sincere and beautiful.
She is an amazing artist and it was a thorough privilege to get to see her live last week.

sacred geometry
I have always been interested in the symmetry and complete sense of well-being that can be gained by looking at and drawing mandalas. Recently, possibly since I went to the Quilt exhibition I have been really interested in the phenomenon of Sacred Geometry. As there is already lots written all over the world wide web, I thought I would just upload some of the most interesting images that I have found. I have also begun working on some flower of life paintings of my own, that hopefully soon I will photograph and upload.

Well earlier I that I was off to make a dream catcher, here are the two that I made this afternoon.
