Westport opening night....work from Workhouse studios....

For those of you that don't know, i'm cuerrntly in southern Ireland in Waterford working in a textiles studio....it's called Workhouse studios and consists of a small team of designers who create beautiful work from jewelry to glass.

last week we took a road trip to Westport where the designers were exhibiting their collections. We arrived on opening night here's how it went down in pictures....

the exhibtion is running until 12th september 2010....

the gallery was packed after the officail opening, and these people even managed to sneak in beforehand...
