Greek art holiday link...see http://www.artholistay.co.uk/index.htm Interesting news:- In late Feb or early March I will be be appearing on a USA network HGTV programme called Cash and Cari. It will be airing in Feb/March. It is similar to Cash in the Attic and the researcher found an antiqie English pub sign in a deceased lady's house. They must have thought I was an antique as they contacted me from the States (yes, it was one of my old pub-signs) and did a Skype interview during the sale of the property's items. The sign was called the Blacksmith's Arms and guess who was the Blacksmith in the painting? Yes, yours truly! I'll let you know the results when it gets airplay. Recent Work My recent work is a series of images based on dance and movement. Below are 4 examples. All are for sale or available in poster form. Click on each thumbnail image to bring up larger image. Please contact me for more details. I will be updating the gallery page 'Dance' with more images from the series. Also I am selling cards, mugs, and T shirts with my dance images on. Go to the page merchandise (dance images).html
September, 2011, I participated in another international exhibition in Brussels. I displayed a number of sketches and paintings showing movement in dance and sport. To see more go to the dance or sport pages in my gallery:- Keep your eyes peeled for more information. During the summer of 2008 I exhibited work at an arts festival in Tübingen,GermanyThe festival was entitled '4elements' and included an exhibition, poetry, music/dance, and even an aquatic art performance. Representatives from four countries - England, Germany, France and Italy participated. My daughter, Leony was involved in the making of a giant latex whale in the dance recital and a figure hugging whale costume used during the water sequence. Each of my paintings exhibited depicted one of the four elements. They were 'Dark Fire, Dark Air, Dark Water, Dark Earth, with Dark Elements being the key painting. I also exhibited a sculpture and photo montages. The project received excellent revues. A high quality catalogue was published showing the work of the artists, photographers, dancers and musicians involved.. As a follow-up I produced my own book containing related work together with paintings, sculptures and photographs linked to the project. If you would like to view a virtual copy of the book please contact me at the above email address and I will post you the link..

The sketches will be a prelude to a series of paintings, again expressing the dynamics and movement that different sporting events convey.
