we love Billie-Jean.........

Last weekend at Les Soeurs Anglaises we were proud to host the opening of an exhibition of the recent work of local artist, American born Billie Jean Spille.  





Anyone who has attended one of our past workshops may well have had the opportunity to visit Billie and see her wonderful, unique work in the intimacy of her Rapunzel-like studio where she keeps all her current and bygone treasures; and if she was a a smidgeon younger we would invite her to lead a workshop here of her own because we just love her beautiful, unique art and style.





Billie's health hasn't been too wonderful over the last few years, but she continues to produce her art and is currently transferring some of her vintage designs onto larger canvases.  There were plenty of these to see at her show and a good turnout of visitors and admirers on the first afternoon of her exhibition.  Some of her work is still available though so please do contact us if you would like to purchase one.  Prices start a 300€ for her larger pieces.




Also available, in packs of 10, are her postcards (40€ + postage)






as well as the poster for her exhibition (20€ + postage)
