If you get the chance have a look at Tamlyn Blasdale-Holmes' wallpaper site. Tamlyn is a fellow SGFA Drawing Society member and yes, he can really draw. Now he's working big too tamlynwallpaper.com
All of the selected work (including my, gulp, four) for the 209th Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours exhibition at the Mall Galleries is available online here. The actual show runs from May 20-29. Tickets are bookable here or contact me for a Private View invitation
Sea Pictures Gallery in Clare, Suffolk is open again and I'm pleased to say these watercolours are on show or online here
Well. Not quite. About half of the 'Lockdown lane walks' series I've been concentrating on lately
Here are the results of lockdown shopping visits to Shaftesbury. As a break from the studio, I'd sit with my takeaway coffee and scribble what was around me. Some of these sketches are now available from the lovely new Folde shop at the top of Gold Hill in Shaftesbury
Scribbles from a visit to Shaftesbury. Bits of Gold Hill, the bread queue and my boot
Massive thanks to thisisalfred.com for letting me ramble on about my Lockdown lane walks series of paintings
It’s been a tough year for us all. Perhaps that’s what makes good news seem even sweeter if it arrives. I’m lucky to have four watercolours selected by @royal_institute_watercolours for their Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours 209th Exhibition @mallgalleries I am really grateful and invigorated by the nod from the society’s members.
Very happy that 'Puddles in the lane' has made it onto the longlist for Jackson's Painting Prize. There are 400 selected works from 8674 entries
