@BBCSport wondering why the BBC are not showing British player Dan Evans play in the quarter final at Eastbourne instead showing two young women we’ve barely heard of ?

@BBCr4today @Emmabarnett Great to hear her and a worthwhile project of course. Why did we not get told the name of the artist who she worked with who will have drawn and made the animation and so realised her vision ? A real oversight, please let us know who the artist is !

I'm proud to lead the BIDDY project with Peta Lloyd supporting and showcasing the work of older women artists. The monthly BIDDY BOOST mentoring meetings for older women artists are inspiring and hugely enjoyable

[COU COU @CouCouCuration]

The best, talking with the BIDDY BOOST artists about our impulses as artists and how we propel them to action. Who inspires us, what is our identity and how do we nurture it ? Next time we will look at method and maintenance and plan for productivity

WIP in the studio, making marks, cutting, tearing, sticking, unsticking. What are my impulse, where are my rhythms and repetitions, what is this journey ?

Water-droppers were made for adding small quantities of water, drop by drop, to the smooth flat stones used in the preparation of ink for calligraphy or painting.

[Clare Carswell @performazing]

A hundred years on and it still seems to be that people can regard a woman spending time making art as indulging a hobby rather than pursuing her profession and passion. As an artist with a forty year practice behind me I experience this more now that I am older.

[#WOMENSART @womensart1]

When UK sculptor Barbara Hepworth was photographed she always insisted to be shown working to be taken seriously as a proffesional artist and avoid the common presentation of women as just 'dabbling' in art

I feel as though I too am sitting in this verdant garden. What a wonderful painting, thanks for sharing it with us @womensart1

Thrilled to see Tate Modern’s first exhibition of 2025 will focus on Lucian Freud's male muse - the performer, artist, designer and musician Leigh Bowery who I wrote about in my book MUSE https://t.co/HUFWODJE2D

I can't wait to see this exhibition. Pallant House is a wonderful gallery
