   'The beginning', pen on paper, 2017. SOLD

So much has been going on since I last posted. I am finding it hard to keep up to date on my social media. Between Facebook, Instagram, the blog, Blue Thumb and my website there is not enough hours in the day to be constantly posting as well as working and making art. I thought it was about time to post some recent stuff and happenings. I was in a recent group exhibition at B.S.G which was great fun. I purchased an amazing drawing by Tarn Watkinson who I adore!! I am in the ever popular 40x40 prize and exhibition at the same gallery opening this Friday night 12th May running till the 2nd June. This is always a great night out and amazingly diverse exhibition. Straight after that I am curating an exhibition themed 'Emotions have no gender don't lock your in the dark' exploring manhood and Men's mental health. Organised by friends and colleagues. An eclectic exhibition of works of all disciplines by many wonderful artists. In August I have been scouted to showcase...

Commissioned work for a friend and colleague. 'I can see you, can you see me?. 2016, mixed media on paper.

Pet portrait of the beautiful Ada for my equally beautiful friend Kathryn.  'Have I told you lately that I love you'. 2016, pencil on paper.

This year saw me do some new things. I ran my first crowd-funding campaign to fund my second solo exhibition. The campaign was a great success as well as the exhibition thanks to all my wonderful friends and family who always support me and my projects. I have been busy making commissioned work for people which is a first for me and I LOVE it!! I wish I could make work for people all day so feel free to contact me if you like my stuff and have something specific in mind. It has been a great year so far I can't wait for more ones like this one.
