passing time…

a few workbook pages filled while invigilating my recent solo exhibition in King’s Lynn.
The first three are inspired by exploration of the Penwith mining area in west Cornwall; the last two by recent walks along the north Norfolk saltmarsh.
Food for thought here I think …

Coastlines exhibition launch …

Yesterday’s launch of my solo show ‘Coastlines’ at Greyfriars Art Space in King’s Lynn brought in over thirty visitors. Thanks to everyone who came and for all the enthusiasm and great feedback.

The exhibition runs till Saturday 11 October and also includes a small selection of distinctive ceramics, fired using an ancient Japanese method, by Dameon Lynne.

… it would be great to see you at my upcoming solo exhibition ‘Coastlines’, which will be showing at Greyfriars Art Space, King’s Lynn, Norfolk, from 27 September to 11 October 2014.

The theme is inspired by my residency at Brison’s Veor, Cape Cornwall earlier this year and contrasts that wild, rugged coast with the very different North Norfolk coastline close to where I live, and where, as regular followers of this blog will know, I often walk, sketch and paint along the saltmarshes and beaches.

On the opening Saturday (29thSeptember) I’ll be having a ‘bit of a do’ between 12 noon and 4pm to launch the exhibition, with wine and nibbles, you’d be very welcome!
