Linear outline: FLORENCE, CORNERHOUSE AND MANCHESTER ART GALLERY

I have had a much needed break, two days of, all work free. I was lucky enough to adventure up to both Manchester and Newcastle to see Florence and the machine for my 6^th and 7^th time of seeing them live. Their never fail to disappoint, the voice, THAT CATSUIT and the stage were a picture perfect image. She has a voice of an angel, and it was wonderful to see somebody who is so sweet and down to earth have their dream come to true to have an arena tour, while walking into men arena I got all teary eyed like a proud mother, it is defiantly the biggest arena I’ve ever being into! Newcastle arena was bursting with energy and the crowd was actually amazing, song of the night was without a doubt never let me go. The room felt silent and all you could see was a sea of arms swaying side to side with Florence beaming with pride with the biggest grin on her face.

In Manchester we travelled up early which allowed us the opportunity to explore the beautiful streets filled up of shop upon shop where I ended up spending far too many pennies! We popped into the Cornerhouse gallery, which also sold the most amazing orange and chocolate muffins, yummmm. It opened its doors the specular colourful work of the artist Samantha Donnelly.

Made up of bright flashes of colour, fashion imagery and even fake nails it certainly didn’t disappoint, the layout was perfect allowing each piece to stand at its own. The scale of her work is actually amazing, so sculptural and beautiful and made up of so many different weird and wonderful textures.

We then headed over to the Manchester art gallery, which is a beautiful building on such a grand space with never ending corridors situated over three whole floors. Within there they were holding their under that cloud exhibition. An open place space room filled up of all different textures and colours and hidden meanings within the different pieces under one roof.
