My artwork is featured in the new edition of Resurgence & Ecologist Magazine! They have used one of my Imaginary Star Charts to illustrate the article Changing The World: The Pudding of Experience, which you can also read online here, and one of my Ground & Sky Painted Stone Collections to illustrate A Poet for All Times, a feature about Rabindranath Tagore, who in 1913 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
It was a real honour to be featured in this wonderful magazine, full of interesting articles illustrated by beautiful artwork throughout. You can purchase a copy via their site here.
I just wanted to share two new landscape paintings I created for the recent Art 7 show at Peter Pears Gallery in Aldeburgh. Both are fairly large (for me!), and one of them is still available. The Quiet Of The Night sold at the show, but Patchwork Hills 5 is available to purchase directly from me, so if you're interested please get in touch! It is priced at £575.00 (details and measurements can be found below). I hope you enjoy them.
As I'm in the middle of preparing for this show - it's a last-minute mad rush as usual! - I just wanted to stop by quickly to let you know that I'll be exhibiting some new paintings on canvas, fine art prints, and painted stone collections at Art 7 next week. It promises to be a varied and interesting show in a lovely gallery space, so please do come along if you're in the area. I'd love to see you there! I'll be attending both of the Private Views, and I'll also be in the gallery occasionally throughout the week.
I'll share the landscape paintings I've been working on for the exhibition on the blog very soon. In the meantime, please check out the artists featured (links below).
I've been meaning to post these new paintings on the blog for a couple of weeks. If you follow me on Twitter or Flickr you may have seen them already - actually, Patchwork Hills 4 was chosen by Flickr to be featured in their Explore section, which was a lovely surprise! The image itself has been viewed more than 2,700 times already; that's pretty amazing to me. Anyway, these landscape paintings were made especially for the show Art by the Sea at the Serena Hall Gallery in Southwold, Suffolk, UK. If you're in the area, perhaps go along and see them in person - and let me know if you do!
I've started making some new painted stone collections again, and I'm enjoying it so much. I think it was good to have a little rest from painting these for a while as I now have renewed enthusiasm for them. The first collection is a commissioned set of 10 stones created especially for a client, based loosely on the collection I made for the Homes & Gardens magazine article last year, which you can see here and here.
You can see how much lighter the stones look before I apply the matte varnish; it really brings out the depth and colour. I also decided to replace the pinkish stone with a brown one.
And finally, I made this little collection, Three Feathers, for the A Bird A Day project. You can find this particular set in this shop.
Don't forget that 10% of all proceeds from the A Bird A Day shop goes to the charity Comic Relief, helping disadvantaged people in the UK and Africa, until 30th April.
