WST

This Summer I will be taking part in the Whiteknights Studio Trail. Here is a five colour screenprint that I have been working on, depicting a Royal Aircraft Factory RE.8 as observed at IMW Duxford.

Spring Greens

Having recently upgraded to an 'Exhibiting Member' of Reading Guild of Artists, I shall be submitting work to the RGA's 84th Annual Exhibition "Spring Greens". It will be on from Sat 22nd March to Tue 1st April 2014 at the Old Fire Station Gallery, 66 Market Place, Henley RG9 2AG.

Alumni

It is 2014. How better to start off the year than with an Exhibition... From January 11th to 29th, I am part of Maiden Erlegh's Alumni Exhibition which features an eclectic mix of work from former Art students. For more details and opening times, check out the Community Arts page. On show is one of my screenprints: Red Kite I, edition of 30. For this and more, make sure to take a look!

Festival of Crafts 2013

I left my mark at the Big Draw at Farnham Maltings again, this time on the theme of travel. This is a model of a Renault 12.

Books, Faces and Lists

I had another good day at the Rising Sun Arts Centre. It was wonderful combination of books, bookarts, poetry, performance and music. Below are some of my original ink drawings which I was selling alongside handmade notebooks, zines, cards and prints. Hope to see you all at Bookface 2014!

The Boy Who Cried

Yesterday I visited The UK Wolf Conservation Trust in Beenham Reading for their bianuual open day.  It was somewhat fortuitous for the weather to be this good, and nice to be able to see wolves up close.

The more observant amongst you may notice that one of these is not a wolf, but a Harris Hawk, although I won't say which one.

Bookface 2013

This Sunday I will be selling my handmade wares at The Rising Sun Arts Centre, on Silver Street, Reading. More details on the flyer below... I hope to see loads of friendly faces (unfriendly faces also welcome). 

Square Circles

Today I visited the Art Scope Open Day at the Circle Hospital, Reading. It is really nice to see all the art from local artists in one place. Below is an experimental print which I composed; the stamps and blocks are cut by Martin Andrews, with the exception of the wonderful fellow in his pyjamas.
