Not a great start

Our family had an awful start to the new year with a bereavement to someone extremely close to me. This has inevitably had a major impact on my ability to find physical and mental space to create artwork. Some artists can channel grief and trauma through to their artwork, I personally have not been ableContinue reading “Not a great start”

Refreshing exhibitions

Always important to refresh your current exhibitions if you get a chance. Prevents your display feeling stagnant to potential buyers who have come along more than once.

More creating through the COVID haze.

Been spending the last few weeks in the studio painting and drawing lots of studies, plus adding layers to ongoing paintings.

I wonder when thisContinue reading “More creating through the COVID haze.”
