I’ve just uploaded 2 new paintings. The titles, Rooftops and Blustery, are only temporary as I’m a bit stuck, but wanted to post the pictures. Does anyone have any better suggestions? Anyway. I have today completed painting new piece number 6 for the June exhibition. Spring is in the air and world seems like a much more colourful and inspiring place!

I’m typing whilst scanning in two new pieces. Cruck Barn at Little Stubb is a commission, being delivered this weekend. It’s of a little nest of houses in a hidden valley that I would never have know was there had I not been invited to paint it. The second, called Hawthorne Trees (at least for now) is of a terrace of houses up in Birchcliff in the late Autumn sun. This is the first finished piece for my exhibition at The Calder Gallery in June.

The exhibition at Brighouse comes down at the end of Saturday 18th so please pop along and see it before It all gets taken away…

Previewing on the afternoon of Sunday September 21st, I am having a new solo exhibition at the Harrison Lord Gallery In Brighouse. I have several new pieces – amongst them a walled garden, a courtyard in Cockermouth and the riverside Sowerby bridge. There will also be prints of new and recent work. I will be there for the afternoon, along with my daughter Hattie who will eat all the snacks if you don’t come along and help!

The last day of the exhibition at The Calder Gallery in Hebden Bridge is this coming Sunday (July 20th). Please go along and have a look before it all gets taken away!

I have just uploaded all of the images of the new work now on display at The Calder Gallery. The Preview last night was a great success. The exhibition is up until July 20th so please pop in and have a look!

All 14 new pieces are now finished and waiting to be framed and and I am now working on the prints. The Exhibition starts on Wednesday June 25th at The Calder Gallery in Hebden Bridge. It’s hanging until July 20th. Please go and have a look!

I’m just going to display a couple more of the new pieces for the June exhibition; I feel there ought to be some unseen work there on the 24th! One of these is Towpath, showing brightly coloured canal boats covered in flower pots.

I have just completed a commission of the village of Luddenden, in the Calder Valley. It’s off to the framers this afternoon!

I have just uploaded three new paintings to the site, entitled Hattie’s Garden, Rime and Cellar Door. These will be shown at The Calder Gallery at my solo exhibition from 24th June 2008. More new work is on it’s way…
