'Art for arts Sake'
Very exited to be exhibiting at ‘Life Lines 2’ this year. This is a collaborative exhibition of figurative works from the Buckden life drawing group which I am part of. I have 4 pieces on show.
If you are local to the area please take time to visit. The exhibition has free entry and is fully catalogued meaning all artworks are for sale. Show runs from 11th Sept to 12th Oct.
I often experiment with photographing my artwork to create something new. In this image I have combined soft focus and mirroring. I couldn’t title this piece so its left to the viewer to decide their emotional response?
I’ve been experimenting with gold flake additive in my paint with mixed results. It is only visible from certain angles, which is intriguing but also means it not apparently visible at first glance. Does it add to it, I don’t know?
Sometimes an opportunity arises through social media. I was pleased to be selected to be featured by Lily Lacey-Hastings on her Art Feed.
She is a talented Art Writer/Art lover/Art influencer on Instagram. She has a large (12k) following and her carefully considered posts weave together art from the past with that from the new.
As part of this she wrote a poignant caption for my piece and also featured my favourite/most influential artists either side of my post to add extra context.
Very happy to have been chosen and this was a great collaboration.

As this summer has been one of the hottest on record here in the UK I have been using these 3 hot colours. Cerise pink, orange and yellow. I love the intensity these bring.
See my artwork page with some new content.
Buying a new artwork is always a heart racing, exciting experience, whether your a collector or novice art lover. Therefore its important to know all the facts and make sure you are happy with the conditions of sale and the quality of your investment.
From my perspective as the artist I am also keen to make sure the experience is as positive and pleasurable as possible.
