Really lovely mixed media triptych - sand, acrylic, medium, pva, paper, fabric dyes, foil and all sorts of other secret ingredient that make these abstracted landscapes. And there I am trying m=not to look uncomfortable.
Brilliant tuition from Shelley Noble for both beginners and those with much more experience who just want access to a life model and studio space. Only 12 spaces available so make your booking now. There are 6 sessions but there is room for one or two drop in sessions if you just want to have a go. I thought this would make an excellent birthday gift as a full 6 week term or just a drop-in single session.

What an excellent exhibition! I believe this is the first time that this series has been exhibited together . It's a really colourful treat, uncompromising mixtures of colour and composition with a huge range of marks and gestural applications that you wouldn't think could work - but they do. So nice to have such a great show at the gallery and the feedback from visitors has been nothing but positive, even those we were slightly sceptical seem to have warmed to it. There is a book to accompany the exhibition (a slim tome to be sure, but full of great images) for which I wrote the foreword. If you can - please come and see this exhibition - it will warm your soul. Saturday 5th - 18th May The
We will be hanging the paintings tomorrow in preparation for the private view on Saturday starting at 5pm. If you are in the area please pop along and say hello and enjoy these unusual paintings.
