Good art show

Art critics have poured praise on the latest exhibition from the good fairy - even before they've seen the works in question. Cuh!

Dozens of drawings, monoprints and 3-D sculptures go on show from 23 June this year at Stoke Newington's Vortex Gallery in a show called "The spider inside her. Inklings & songs from the Good Book".

The critics have history on their side. The good fairy's previous show drew gobsmacked responses from all over the place. Such as: ‘Venezuelan-folk-art-mambo-nightmare. Bloody brilliant!’ ‘Unique, uplifting, unbelievable’ ‘My name is Charlene, my age is 7’ ‘Mesmeric’ ‘If only the rest of life was like this fantastic exhibition’ ‘Fab. Fancy decorating a Marina 1000 roof?’ ‘Overwhelming, witty and funky’ ‘Where’s the bog?’ Not bad for a first show.

The new show at the Vortex features a tightly knit series of black and white ink drawings and monoprints depicting life in the shadow of tall buildings and complicated transport arrangements.

Some of the pictures, which the good fairy says she did "standing up with a thin pen" also appear in the brand new book of songs and drawings being launched by diego brown and the good fairy in June — The Good Book. Featuring Mr Shouty and other scary tales observed and set down by diego brown and the good fairy.
