Belper Solo Exhibition: Extended

Due to popular demand my landscape exhibition at the Little Gallery in Belper has been extended another week until Friday 19th October 2007. So there is still time to buy that painting for christmas :-)

Solo Exhibition:Opening

Had a very successful opening day for my solo exhibition at the Little Gallery in Belper. Attendance was good and included support from friends and family. Anna and Richard the gallery owners made us feel at home supplying with gallons of tea throughout the day!


















It was a good opportunity to meet up with the recent buyer of my "Dark Moor" painting, talk to him about painting and also to meet his family, his daughter bought one of my paintings on the day. Later in the day I sold a print and one of favourite "Corpus Veneer" paintings called "Blood Rush". All in all very enjoyable day, see pictures below.

Wirksworth Festival: Bolehill Trail

Spent most of the weekend in-situ on the Wirksworth Festival, Bolehill Trail. Great experience met loads of people, I had 140 visitiors on the first day and over 200 on the second! It was very rewarding to hear so much positive feedback about my paintings. Loads of people took information, business cards, CVs etc. Hope to see as many more people at my next solo, 6-12 October at the Little Gallery Belper, as a result.

Many thanks to Mike Edwards and family for "lending" me their front room for the weekend. I also met up with Colin Halliday, who's work I have admired for a while and it was good to talk "art" with a like-minded artist.

Great weekend, will be back next year.

For any visitors that have decided that they missed a painting, much of the same stock will be at my solo exhibition in two weeks!
