    Cleavage in the Royal Library and UK tabloid...

    Cleavage managed to get a mention in a right wing gossip column in the UK this past week. .. this came about because of a sculpture of mine that was included in a show that is part of the Campaign for Wool. The campaign is to promote all the uses of wool and the opening was last week in London and I went, and so did Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla and I met them and gave them a copy of Cleavage...which then got a mention here:


    scroll down to the bottom where it starts: PS Apropos Camilla

    or look on my website:


    London was fun and the short amount of time was just fine too, I went to the Tate Modern, the Saatchi gallery, all around on those double decker buses through neighborhoods, went to a giant food market near London Bridge, walked over the Millenium bridge, saw St. Paul's, ate delicious Indian food in Hackney....I didn't get to everything, but I will probably have a stopover there again I imagine .     

         The opening night had paparazzi because of the Prince and Duchess and Colin Firth and Viviene Westwood and whoever.. I had a terrible pair of shoes that did not want to stay on my feet , so I made my paparazzi entrance hobbling along through the entrance with rained on wind-whipped hair... Once inside, us exhibitors were corralled into a side gallery where the Prince and Duchess came to meet us one by one.  I did hand a Cleavage book to the Duchess and she giggled at the title. It was not opened on the spot, they had to move right along, but I'm pretty sure she held onto it for later!

    So I guess the woman who was trailing the Duchess was the informant to the gossip column because she asked me a couple things and and was writing notes.

    Anyway, for those of you who have their cleavages in my book, you are now housed with royalty! Put that on your modeling career CV!

    Cheerio!

    Hot Topic, more on Cleavage

    I'm proud to announce that Cleavage is now available through http://www.phillipsdepury.com/

    They took some books today. Also in the near future, Cleavage will be going to Paris. I will be too, but I think my book will get a head start. I'm talking with my gallerist about a show in the fall and possible art residency in the south of France. Sounds good to me.

    That's the update-a-roonie for now.

    cheers and Happy Summer,

    Bethany
