    Solo Exhibition - Hanging and Opening

    So the day has arrived! After months of painting, sorting, framing more painting, mounting, packaging, wrapping... you get the picture :) I finally got my solo exhibition up and running! Huge thanks to Lucy at Sock Gallery for arranging the event and doing a great job with promoting the show and for making the fantastic gallery space look... well fantastic. I hope you get the chance to go to Loughborough to see my latest collections of both oil and acrylic paintings in this u

    Coming Soon! Solo Exhibition - Sock Gallery

    So its now time to knuckle down and get ready for my Solo Exhibition starting in May at Sock Gallery, Loughborogh. My studio is a bit manic at the moment! Creating and curating a solo exhibition is a lot of hard work! creating a body of work that sits together in one space, deciding on size of canvas, making a decision on framing are they going to be oils, acrylics or a combination of the two? Mounting, varnishing, framing, pricing, designing, printing the list goes on and on

    Happy New Year...

    I am writing this while away for a new year get away in Marrakech. If you haven’t had the experience of a visit to this wonderful place then I highly recommend it! As a artist it is a truly inspiring place to be full of visual splendour as well as a full on attack on the senses! Whether it be the call to prayer from the beautiful Koutoubia Mosque at 5.30am or the smells of fresh herbs and spices in the square it is a true experience. The view of the snow capped Atlas Mountain
