Bon morrow my cold damp chums....

T'is supposed to be lovely Spring like weather with gamboling lambs and the budding of fruitfulness and promise...mmmmm...it's about as promising as a damp dishcloth on the draining board of life. Ho Hum.
T'is just as well that I have been locked away like a balding Rapunzel in my studio tower. Me and the weather are as strangers, infact me and the real world are now just passing aquaintances. I've been painting and painting and painting.......................

I am please to say that I am now working on the last piece for the forthcoming "Elementals" exhibition. It's called "Dragons Kiss" ooooer. It's a vague reference to a shape shifting dragon...which, incidentally, there were rather few of. All were blokes to...and all seemed to be shape shifted as a form of punishment or because some other bloke got a bit miffed with them. Enough said...
The paintings seem to have taken on a life of their own and I'm not too sure if they controlled me or I them. I know that sounds like a lorry load of pretentious doodahs...but they have been the most "organic" paintings I have done. It's been quite a challenge to create enough "shape shifting" to inform and still maitain a mood and narative that the viewer can unfold. Hey ho...it's now too late to have all the usual doubts about them as the preview is now less than two weeks away....oooooo...bloody...er.

On 27th May 2010 between the times of 6:00pm and 8:30pm at Park Gallery in Polakshaws Road they will be on show to the world. The past 5/6 months of my life will be there for all to peek at... read about... judge... praise (hopefully)... buy (most certainly)... and enjoy (fingers crossed)
All I can say is please "be kind to my mistakes"

If you have an uncontrollable urge to find out more please feel free to contact David at Park Gallery....he's a most obliging soul and, I have to say, a most patient one...he'd have to be to represent me.....cheers David.

Thank you for taking the time...
